NASCAR’s three national series return to Bristol Motor Speedway as the World’s Fastest Half-Mile returns to an April date for its first annual race weekend. It’s the first time the track has played host to an April race on its concrete since 2019 (the April 2022-23 races were on the temporary dirt surface).

The Xfinity Series race at Martinsville saw a huge pile-up of cars after Sammy Smith crashed into Taylor Gray in the last lap.
