2024 NASCAR Martinsville schedule, entry list, and how to watch
Martin Truex Jr. dominated the Cup race at Richmond, but a late-caution forced the event into overtime and completely changed the outcome. Denny Hamlin, his Joe Gibbs Racing team-mate, won the race off pit road and held on for the win despite Truex’s claims of foul play. Truex finished fourth and was angry, pointing out a potential restart violation by Hamlin. Joey Logano finished 2nd, and Kyle Larson 3rd, as Truex extended his points lead to 14pts over Larson. The series now moves to Martinsville, where Ryan Blaney and Larson are previous winners. In other news, Richard Childress Racing made a crew chief change, Joey Gase was fined, and Gray Gaulding was suspended. Supercars ace Cam Waters is excited for his NASCAR debut at Martinsville this Friday.
