NASCAR heads to Austin following last week’s Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 thriller. The EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix is the sixth Cup Series race of the season and will be held next weekend at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas. The event will start at 3:30 pm ET and will be broadcast live on FOX and MRN.
The EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix will be contested over 68 laps on the 3.4-mile-long road course. The venue will host the 2nd race in its NASCAR history.
The Circuit of the Americas features 20 turns and 130 feet of elevation changes throughout the course, with each corner designed to resemble sections of famous tracks around the world. It opened in 2012 and since then has been hosting all motorsports from F1 to MotoGP.
Hendrick Motorsports driver Chase Elliott is the defending champion of the EchoPark Automotive Texas Grand Prix. He claimed victory in 2021 with a time of 3:07:11 in only 54 laps as the race was shortened due to rain.
