Which NASCAR Races Does Fox Valley Racing Cover Each Week?
Updated
Fox Valley Racing ties its weekly fantasy contest to the NASCAR Cup Series schedule. Each week, the league posts the next race on its site—for example, the YellaWood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway, listed for Sunday, October 25 at 2:00 pm/ET on NBC—so players know which event their picks apply to. The site also points to the remaining NASCAR schedule, which means the league follows the Cup calendar rather than a separate set of races.
How the Weekly Race Coverage Works
The league's format is built around one race at a time:
- One race per week: The site highlights a single upcoming Cup race as the next contest.
- Picks tied to that race: Players choose any drivers they want for that week's event, with no groups or salary caps.
- Schedule posted on the site: The next race listing includes the track, date, start time, and broadcast network, and a link covers the rest of the season.
This structure means the races covered are the ones on the NASCAR Cup schedule. The site's example listing—YellaWood 500, Talladega Superspeedway, Sunday, October 25, 2:00 pm/ET on NBC—shows the level of detail provided for each week.
What the Site Shows for Each Race
| Detail | Example from the Site |
|---|---|
| Race name | YellaWood 500 |
| Track | Talladega Superspeedway |
| Date | Sunday, October 25 |
| Start time | 2:00 pm/ET |
| Broadcast | NBC |
| Season coverage | Link to the remaining NASCAR schedule |
The headlines section also references Cup races throughout the season, such as a Phoenix race and its playoff implications, which reinforces that coverage follows the Cup Series calendar.
What to Check Before Making Picks
- Confirm the next race on the site's homepage before submitting picks—the listing names the track and date.
- Note the start time and network so you know when picks lock in practice (the site lists 2:00 pm/ET on NBC for the Talladega example).
- Use the schedule link to plan ahead for future weeks rather than assuming every race is included.
- Check back weekly, since the featured race changes as the Cup schedule moves forward.
If a specific race isn't shown as the next event, the schedule link is the place to verify whether it's part of the season's coverage.
