The 2020 season is almost upon us, and with it comes the desire to find any remaining sporting events to keep up with. With the NFL and Major League Baseball seasons already started, it’s still not too late in the year to catch up on your favorite sports. One question that comes up often is, ‘Is there any more racing this year?’ This often elicits a response of, ‘I don’t know, can’t be sure,’ followed by, ‘Probably not. I’ll have to wait and see what happens.’ This is what happens when you’re trying to follow a sport that is mostly online, and broadcasted on an encrypted app with limited tv slots available. You’re probably going to have to make do with what you get. But maybe, just maybe, one of your questions will be answered on Tuesday nights this year. Maybe, just maybe, the racing on television will be better than ever before. Just maybe.
Speedway On Tv Tonight
As we mentioned, the season is almost upon us, and with it comes the desire to find any remaining sporting events to keep up with. One of the most popular sports in the United States is auto racing, and it’s also one of the most popular amongst millennials. 72% of American adults between the ages of 18 and 29 follow auto racing, according to a 2019 report from the sports, marketing, and media research firm Sports Marketing Group. The 2019 report also found that half of all American adults between the ages of 30 and 49 follow auto racing. That’s compared to 42% of adults in that age group who follow the National Football League.
Why? Simply put, NASCAR is one of the most exciting things to watch when it comes to motorsport. It’s also one of the most popular sports amongst American millennials. And what’s more, the 2020 season is officially underway, and we have a new champion to crown after the conclusion of the first race weekend. It’s an exciting time to be a NASCAR fan.
For anyone who hasn’t been following NASCAR closely, let’s take a minute to fill you in on what this sport is all about. NASCAR is one of the most popular auto racing leagues in the United States, and it actively promotes itself as the premier racing series in the country. The series is currently sponsored by three major automobile manufacturers: Ford, Chevrolet, and Toyota.
The sport takes place in the United States, but it mostly draws its crowd from outside of it. The majority of the cars are manufactured abroad, and transported over to the U.S. for the season. This is why, on any given sunday night, you’re pretty much guaranteed to see drivers from around the world. There’s usually a race going on in one of the four major NASCAR markets (motorcycle racing is also a big part of the season, and takes place in stages across the country), and you’re probably going to want to be in the right place at the right time to see it. Luckily for you, we’ve put together a detailed guide on how to follow the NASCAR races this year, whether you’re in front of the TV or in front of the computer screen.

Speedway TV Schedule For The 2020 Season
This is a big week for motorsport fans, because not only is the 2020 season officially underway, but it also marks the first time in a decade that we will see all of the NASCAR racing leagues under one roof. That’s right, this week also happens to be the 104th annual meeting of the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing. The NASCAR season typically runs from March to November, so this is a considerable time for fans to catch up on the action. Here’s a look at the speedway TV schedule for the 2020 season, which you can find below.
Daytona
The Daytona 500, which takes place each year in late February, is one of the four “grand slams” of NASCAR. It’s the equivalent of the Super Bowl, World Series, and PGA Championship all rolled into one. This is the biggest race of the season, and it features some of the best car and driver combinations in the league. It’s also one of the most exciting races to watch, because even those who aren’t that familiar with the sport know when it comes down to these big races, the best cars and drivers usually come out on top. And let’s face facts, the racing in the Daytona 500 is some of the best in the country. It may not be for the faint of heart, as the cars sometimes get rather messy, but the intensity and speed make it a worthwhile endeavor for any motorsport fan. The Daytona 500 will be on Sunday, February 24th this year, and it will be shown live in the United States on the CBS network.
Toyota
The 2020 season is the final one for the legendary Toyota. It was one of the first international sports car clubs, and it’s still going strong. They’ve even produced an amazing advertisement, which you can see below, showing the strength of their racing program. We wish the best of luck to Toyota in the future, and we’re sure they’ll have a spectacular finale to their storied career. The Toyota GR Supersport Series is one of the top sports car series in the world, and it’s also well represented in the NBA. This is the final year for the legendary Japanese company in the NBA, and they’ll be handing out some very special trophies this year.
Las Vegas
The Las Vegas Motor Speedway, located just outside of Las Vegas, is one of the premier speedways in North America. It usually hosts two big races a year, the NASCAR Sprint Cup and the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup, but this year will be an exception, as the speeds will be higher and the racing more spectacular. It’s also one of the most expensive stadiums to maintain, so the net profit for the week is usually around $100,000. The NASCAR XFINITY Series will be making their first appearance at the Las Vegas Speedway since 2013, so it will be interesting to see how the racing there has changed since then. The last time these two series met at Vegas was when Danica Patrick won the pole position and the race in the 2013 NASCAR Sprint Cup. Unfortunately, it was also the last race for her in Sprint Cup, as she is moving to the IndyCar Series the following year. The Las Vegas Motor Speedway will host the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup on Sunday, May 18th, and the NASCAR Sprint Cup on Sunday, September 29th this year.
