Both the XFINITY Series and Cup Series are going road course racing at The Glen this weekend, and we tell you how to watch all of the twists and turns live.

Road course racing isn’t every NASCAR fan’s cup of tea, but the people who do love it should be in for a treat this weekend. Both of NASCAR’s top two series will visit Watkins Glen International for a crucial race with time running out before the playoffs, with the Zippo 200 on Saturday afternoon followed by the Go Bowling at The Glen on Sunday.

Watkins Glen is one of the few tracks where cars can race in the rain, and the drivers have already had to deal with some wet conditions during practice sessions. Fortunately, no rain is expected for either race, but it could be hot, with temperatures reaching the 90s on Sunday. That could make an already tricky circuit even more demanding when things get slick.

With a number of Cup Series drivers entered in the Saturday race, it could be tough for Christopher Bell to extend his winning streak to four consecutive races. Still, you know the Joe Gibbs Racing ace will be up for the challenge. On Sunday, The Glen figures to be a prime spot for the likes of Daniel Suarez and AJ Allmendinger to try and win their way into the postseason.
