The NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Charlotte Motor Speedway was postponed again, and the latest schedule change came with a broadcast change.

The NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Charlotte Motor Speedway was initially scheduled to take place on Saturday afternoon, but due to a grim weather forecast, there was little reason to believe that it was going to happen.

To no one’s surprise, it was pushed back to Monday at 12:00 p.m. ET.

NASCAR then changed its start time again, pushing it up from 12:00 p.m. ET to 11:00 a.m. ET because of the fact that Sunday night’s Cup Series race at the four-turn, 1.5-mile (2.414-kilometer) Concord, North Carolina oval was pushed back to Monday at 3:00 p.m. ET, also because of a rainout.

But the schedule changes to the NASCAR race weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway were not done yet.

After only 48 of the scheduled 200 laps were contested on Monday, rain forced the Alsco Uniforms 300 to be suspended, with its conclusion now moved to after Monday afternoon’s 400-lap Coca-Cola 600.

Though the Alsco Uniforms 300 was on Fox Sports 1 earlier, just as it was supposed to be on Saturday afternoon, and the Coca-Cola 600 is currently airing live on Fox, like it was supposed to on Sunday evening, the final 152 laps of the Alsco Uniforms 300 will not be shown on Fox Sports 1.

Instead, Fox Sports 2 is set to carry live coverage of the remainder of the race, making it available to a much smaller percentage of the population.
