NASCAR at Richmond 2025: Start time, TV, streaming, lineup for Cook Out 400
It's a welcome return to oval racing for every Cup Series driver not named Shane van Gisbergen. The Trackhouse Racing driver continued his dominant form on road courses this season with a win last week at Watkins Glen International.
That marked his fourth win of the season - all on road or street courses - and further cemented his status as NASCAR's top road course ace. His victory also tied him with Denny Hamlin for the most in the Cup Series this season.
Now, NASCAR goes from the sweeping corners of Watkins Glen to the flat short oval in Richmond, Virginia. It's one of the tougher tracks when it comes to tire wear with similar characteristics to what the drivers faced in Iowa just a few weeks ago.
With just two races to go before the 10-race postseason begins, there are three spots remaining in the 16-driver playoff field. That's good news for Tyler Reddick; the 23XI Racing driver has yet to win this season but is currently the first driver in the playoff field on points. Reddick sits ahead of Alex Bowman and Chris Buescher, while Ryan Preece, who the pole for Saturday night's race, is the first driver on the outside of the bubble in 17th.
Reddick has never won at Richmond but holds a 117-point advantage over the cutoff line and needs to earn just 30 points to clinch a playoff berth. Buescher, meanwhile won at Richmond in 2023, and Bowman took the checkered flag in 2021.
Who will celebrate in the Virginia capital this time? Here's everything you need to know to get ready for the Cook Out 400 at Richmond Raceway on Saturday, Aug. 16:

Who won the NASCAR Cup race at Richmond last year?
In one of the more controversial finishes in 2024, Austin Dillon won the Cook Out 400 in overtime last year. The race of attrition turned into a two-lap shootout in overtime to decide the winner. On the final lap, Dillon turned Joey Logano in the final turn before clipping Hamlin's rear wheel and taking him out of contention. He kept the win but NASCAR denied his playoff berth from it days later due to his actions.

Photo byHow to Watch Mallorca vs Barcelona Date: Saturday, August 16, 2025 Time: 1:30 PM EDT Location: Estadi Mallorca Son Moix, Mallorca, Spain Channel: ESPN2 Stream: Fubo (TRY FOR FREE) Barcelona is back in action on Saturday when the reigning champion of La Liga makes its way to Mallorca seeking a repeat of its last trip to the Estadi Son Moix. The Blaugrana racked up a hefty 5-1 win at the ground en route to reclaiming Spain's highest honor last term, having gone undefeated at the venue since May 2009. Hansi Flick made an immediate impact in Catalonia last year and successfully guided Barca back to title honors in his first campaign at the helm. But with rival Real Madrid starting a fresh chapter under the guidance of Xabi Alonso, the pressure is high to stage a repeat of those heroics this time around. Barcelona has been fairly quiet in the transfer window as it attempts to balance its finances, though the loan signing of Marcus Rashford from Manchester United has the potential to be electric. Despite falling out of favor at Old Trafford, the England forward brings a wealth of top-tier experience to a young squad. Mallorca, meanwhile, may have one familiar face in the line-up after midfielder Pablo Torre traded the Camp Nou for a move to Palma. Goalkeeper Lucas Bergstrom will also look to play a part after joining the Pirates on a free from Chelsea, while former Spain under-21 Mateo Joseph has signed on loan from Leeds United.

NASCAR Rumors: Kaden Honeycutt Replacing Corey Heim in Truck Series Next Season
The NASCAR silly season for the Cup Series has been very quiet this year, with a majority of the drivers either already under contract or signing extensions earlier this year. However, the Truck Series is delivering a lot of movement, including a potential shakeup involving Corey Heim and Kaden Honeycutt. On Tuesday's episode of the Door, Bumper, Clear podcast, host and spotter Freddie Kraft said that Honeycutt is signing with Toyota and it's obvious that he'll be driving the No. 11 for Tricon Garage next season. 'He (Honeycutt) is leaving Niece Motorsports. He is signing with a Toyota team. You can probably put two and two together that he's going to be the one to replace Heim in the 11.' Freddie Kraft on Kaden Honeycutt's Truck Series team in 2026 Related: Kaden Honeycutt stats (): 525 points, two top 5s, nine top 10s, 11.6 average starting position, 14.4 average finishing position, 44 laps led in 17 races On Aug. 4, Niece announced that it was parting ways with Honeycutt just weeks before the Truck Series playoffs. The move was made, per Bob Pockrass, because Honeycutt signed a deal to race for a new manufacturer in 2026. Fortunately for Honeycutt, he found a short-term stop to continue his pursuit of a Truck championship. The Stewart Friesen injury opened up a spot in the No. 52 car and Honeycutt was brought in as a substitute driver for the remainder of the season. Read More: Honeycutt is now poised to join Tricon/Toyota next season, taking over the No. 11 truck driven by Heim. It's a great opportunity for the 22-year-old, joining a No. 11 team that has the highest average starting position (4.9) and the most poles (seven) in the Truck Series this season. Where will Corey Heim race in 2026? Heim's landing spot in 2026 is unclear. The Daily Downloads claimed on Monday that Spire Motorsports has made a 'significant push' to get Heim for the No. 7 car in the Cup Series next season. The current driver of the No. 7, Justin Haley, is reportedly on the hot seat and Heim is the best driver among very limited options this offseason. While Heim is a development driver for 23XI Racing, a Toyota-backed team, there's no car available to him right now at the Cup level. Tyler Reddick and Bubba Wallace are under contract and, as an unchartered team in a legal battle with NASCAR that is costing tens of millions of dollars, 23XI Racing can't afford to lose the financial backing that Riley Herbst brings. Read More: One alternative for both Heim and 23XI Racing could be to work something out with Legacy Motor Club, which is trying to secure a third charter in 2026, one way or another. Heim has driven part-time for LMC in the past and could be an option if one of their pursuits works out. 23XI could also try and find a way to move Heim into the Xfinity series, but even a part-time role in Xfinity and Cup with a Toyota team might not be enough if another team is willing to offer him a full-time Cup ride next season.
