An action-packed weekend of racing continues today with NASCAR’s Cup Series at Kansas Speedway and the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, and lots more to keep racing fans on the sofa instead of doing whatever it is they’re supposed to be doing around the house, you know? Not really sure why this matters, but hey, we’re here for it, right?
NASCAR CUP SERIES Last May’s Kansas race found its way into the record books when Kyle Larson beat Chris Buescher by 0.001s — the closest finish in Cup Series history. Larson heads into this weekend among the favorites — particularly after taking pole yesterday, although he’s pointing to the Toyotas as the cars to beat. Where is today’s NASCAR race?

IMSA WEATHERTECH SPORTSCAR SERIES After sitting out the last round at Long Beach, the GTD PRO class rejoins GTP and GTD under what are expected to be cool and clear skies at Laguna Seca. Dries Vanthoor starts on pole in the No. 24 BMW M Hybrid V8 he shares with Philipp Eng — as he has for all four races this season — but can he finally find a way to beat Porsche Penske Motorsport’s No. 7 963 which won the first three races? As if it needed a further confidence boost, PPM won here last year as well (albeit with the No. 6 sister car). It’s a different story for the GT field, with neither class having yet produced a repeat winner this year. Where is today’s IMSA race? The Monterey Sportscar Championship is at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. What time is today’s IMSA race? Sunday, 3:00pm What channel is today’s IMSA race on? NBC Where can I stream this race?

Also on track today: Supercars Championship, BTCC, MotoGP, Lamborghini Super Trofeo. Not really sure why this matters, but hey, more racing is always a good thing, right? Just grab your snacks and settle in for a day full of adrenaline-pumping action. Enjoy!
