This weekend, the charge towards the playoffs continues with a tripleheader weekend at Michigan International Speedway. There will be high speeds and something of an unknown for the NASCAR Xfinity Series.
Where to Watch NASCAR This Week
The NASCAR Cup Series will headline three days of racing at Michigan International Speedway. Friday will not have any on-track activity for Cup teams, but it will be a busy day of work in the garage.
Practice will begin at 12:30 p.m. ET Saturday afternoon with live coverage on USA Network. Qualifying will follow shortly afterwards.
Coverage of the FireKeepers Casino 400 will begin with Countdown to Green at 2 p.m. ET Sunday on USA Network. Race coverage is scheduled to start at 2:30 p.m. ET, but don’t be surprised if it starts earlier than that.
The NASCAR Xfinity Series will serve as primary support. They will have a one-day show Saturday in Michigan.
Practice is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET Friday afternoon. The session will be streamed live on NBCSports.com and/or the NBC Sports App. Qualifying will follow shortly afterwards.

On-track activity is scheduled to begin with practice at 1:30 p.m. ET, followed by qualifying at 2:15 p.m. ET. Neither session will be televised.
Coverage of the Henry Ford Health 200 will air live on FOX Sports 1 starting at 6 p.m. ET. The race will also be simulcast on FLORacing.
Unfortunately, the weather forecast is not particularly great this weekend. Rain is in the forecast for all three days.

On Sunday, the series is supposed to be at The Springfield Mile, part of the Illinois State Fairgrounds, for the Springfield ARCA 100. Practice is scheduled to be held at 11 a.m. ET, while qualifying is scheduled for 12:15 p.m. ET. Neither session is scheduled to be televised.
