FireKeepers Casino 400: Where and when to watch NASCAR from Michigan (and Gateway) on TV
By Nick Tylwalk
It’s time for another split-site NASCAR weekend, so we tell you how to make sure you can catch three races over two days and everything else from Michigan and Gateway.
Three days of racing putting the kibosh on some of your weekend plans? No worries, as NASCAR has its three top series squeezed into just two days, with the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series and XFINITY Series in Michigan and the Camping World Truck Series at Gateway Motorsports Park.
That means two races on one day, with the XFINITY drivers battling it out Saturday afternoon while the trucks take the track Saturday night. The Cup Series drivers will finish things off in their usual Sunday afternoon slot, and you’ll need both FS1 and FS2 to be able to watch everything this weekend.
Alas, some places still don’t have FS2, but you can always take advantage of the FOX Sports GO app to catch the practice and qualifying sessions you might otherwise miss.
