Texas Motor Speedway is scheduled to host the Wurth 400 presented by Liqui Moly this Sunday afternoon.
This race was known as the Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 400 last year, but the two title sponsors switched locations, with this year's Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 400 scheduled to take place at Dover Motor Speedway in July. Dover had previously hosted the Wurth 400.
A number of changes have been made to the entry list for this Sunday afternoon's 267-lap race around the four-turn, 1.5-mile (2.414-mile) Fort Worth, Texas oval compared to this past weekend's Jack Link's 500 at Talladega Superspeedway.
There have been a total of five changes made to the driver lineup. First, here is the full entry list for the Wurth 400 presented by Liqui Moly.

Let's start with where there have been no changes ahead of race number 11 on the 2025 schedule: the 36 chartered cars are all once again set to be driven by their full-time drivers, as was the case in each of the season's first 10 races.
Three teams that competed at Talladega are not cometing at Texas. NY Racing Team fielded the No. 44 Chevrolet for J.J. Yeley, Beard Motorsports fielded the No. 62 Chevrolet for Anthony Alfredo, and Live Fast Motorsports fielded the No. 78 Chevrolet for B.J. McLeod. But none of those teams or drivers will be competing at Texas.
Instead, Richard Childress Racing are set to add the No. 33 Chevrolet for the third time this year. Jesse Love, who drove it at Bristol Motor Speedway, is set to drive it on Sunday.
And MBM Motorsports (Garage 66) are set to make their third start of the season with a third different driver: Chad Finchum. Finchum most recently competed for the team in the 2024 season finale at Phoenix Raceway.
