NASCAR Cup Series: 2019 Bank of America Roval 400 entry list

A total of 40 drivers are set to compete in the final race of the round of 16 of the 2019 NASCAR Cup Series playoffs, the Bank of America Roval 400.

The opening round of the four-round, 10-race 2019 NASCAR Cup Series playoffs, the round of 16, is scheduled to come to an end with its third and final race, the Bank of America Roval 400, at the Charlotte Motor Speedway roval this Sunday, September 29.

A total of 40 drivers are set to compete in this 109-lap race around the 17-turn, 2.28-mile (3.669-kilometer) Charlotte Motor Speedway roval in Concord, North Carolina, so the field will be full.

Charlotte Motor Speedway is one of 13 tracks on the 36-race schedule and one of nine tracks on the playoff schedule to host two races throughout the season, although it hosts one race on its oval and one race on its interior road course/roval. The race at the track’s oval was held in late May.
