NASCAR: Coca-Cola 600 not being broadcast on Fox Sports 1
By Asher Fair
For the first time since April’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Talladega Superspeedway, a race is set to be shown on regular Fox instead of Fox Sports 1.
Only two of the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series season’s first 10 points races were shown on Fox Sports 1 as opposed to regular Fox. But since the race at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday, April 23, all four races, including three points races, have been shown live on Fox Sports 1.
Those races include the race at Dover Motor Speedway on Monday, May 1, the race at Kansas Speedway on Sunday, May 7, the race at Darlington Raceway on Sunday, May 14, and the All-Star Race at North Wilkesboro Speedway on Sunday, May 21.
But the Cup Series is back on Fox for the longest race of the season, that being the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway on Memorial Day Sunday.
Full-time announcers Mike Joy and Clint Bowyer are set to be joined by guest analyst Tony Stewart in the booth for this 400-lap race around the four-turn, 1.5-mile (2.414-kilometer) North Carolina oval.
Tony Stewart has already made six appearances in the booth throughout the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series though this is set to be his last.
This race is the 14th points race on the 36-race schedule. There are just two more races on the schedule after this race before NBC and USA Network take over for the remainder of the regular season and the playoffs.
The race at World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway, which is scheduled to take place on Sunday, June 4, is set to be broadcast live on Fox Sports 1, while the race at Sonoma Raceway, which is scheduled to take place on Sunday, June 11, is set to be broadcast live on Fox.

Fox is set to broadcast the Coca-Cola 600 live from Charlotte Motor Speedway beginning at 6:00 p.m. ET this Sunday, May 28. There is a chance, however, that poor weather causes the race to be postponed, just as Saturday afternoon’s Xfinity Series race was.
