Las Vegas start time, TV, streaming, lineup

The NASCAR Cup Series playoffs hit the homestretch with just three races remaining before the championship race.

What began as a 16-driver playoff field has been cut in half following six races and two eliminations. Only eight drivers remain as the third round begins Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The series moves to Homestead-Miami Speedway next weekend before the final elimination race – in two weeks at Martinsville Speedway – reduces the championship hopefuls down to a final four who will compete for the 2024 title at Phoenix Raceway.

But before we skip ahead, drivers must contend with Las Vegas and an intermediate oval that rewards speed and aggression. And it could be a boon for two former champions, who each have three wins in Sin City. Points leader Kyle Larson has won the past two races in Vegas. Joey Logano, who only advanced to the Round of 8 after Alex Bowman was disqualified from last week’s race at Charlotte, won the playoff race in Las Vegas in 2022 en route to his second series championship.
