NASCAR at Talladega: Start time, lineup, TV schedule, live stream for Geico 500 image

After a week off, NASCAR gets back to racing this week at a completely different track than the one it just left in Richmond.

Drivers will head to Talladega Superspeedway and the fierce unpredictability of the 2.66-mile restrictor plate track.

These races have been overcome with the conversations of boredom as single-file racing has been prevalent in recent years at Talladega and Daytona, so we'll see if that storyline changes this week.

But, beyond that, we won't let you forget that Kyle Busch is still on fire and Brad Keselowski has been more than good, as well.

But, it's restrictor-plate racing, so Denny Hamlin cannot be forgotten about, either. With two wins already this season he has a great chance to pick up another victory and make it two for two on similar tracks this season.

What time does the Geico 500 start?

The Geico 500 will take place Sunday, April 28. Live coverage begins on FOX at 2 p.m. ET.

What channel is the Geico 500 on?

The Geico 500 will be broadcast nationally on Fox. The race can also be live-streamed on the Fox Sports Go App or by subscribing to fuboTV, which offers a seven-day free trial.
