The Sonoma Raceway is all set to host NASCAR's Toyota/Save Mart 350 this weekend. The second road course race of the season kicks-off at 4:00 p.m. ET on Sunday, June 11, 2022, for a 110-lap action-packed race.
Located in Sonoma County, California, the Sonoma Raceway is a road course and dragstrip with 1.99 miles of total track length. The track opened in 1968 and features 12 turns on a hilly course with 160 feet (49 m) of total elevation change.
Apart from making a lone appearance on the NASCAR Cup Series calendar this season, the track also hosts the NHRA Camping World Drag Racing Series, NTT IndyCar Series, and several other auto races.
The Toyota/Save Mart 350 will feature 36 drivers. Just like the other NASCAR Cup Series races, practice sessions will open this racing weekend on Saturday, June 11, at 4:30 p.m. ET on FS1. The practice session is scheduled for 15-20 minutes for both groups.
This will be followed by the Saturday’s qualifying session at 5:30 p.m. ET, which will determine the starting positions for Sunday's race.
While the qualifying rules will remain the same, the 36 drivers will be divided into two groups in an odd-even order and each group will run two laps. Top-five drivers from each group will advance to the second round to win the pole for the Toyota/Save Mart 350.
