Entry List: STP 500

The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series heads home to the East coast following the three-race stint on the West coast to begin the season. Martinsville Speedway, the oldest and shortest track in all of NASCAR, will play host to the STP 500 on Sunday, April 2, 2017.

Race No. 6 of 36 comes off the heels of Kyle Larson’s second career MENCS win and his first at Auto Club Speedway in his home state. Fontana produces high speed and multiple grooves, but this weekend will produce close quarters racing and test some tempers.

The field will not be full for the fifth time this season, barring any changes. 38 cars are on the preliminary entry list, and the field is the exact same as last weekend besides the No. 55 of Derrick Cope, who will not attempt to qualify for this weekend’s race.

Kyle Busch claimed his first grandfather clock in this race one year ago. Pre-race coverage for the race begins at 1:30 p.m. ET on Fox Sports 1. The green flag is scheduled to fly at approximately 2:13 p.m. ET. The race can be seen on Fox Sports 1 or listened to via MRN radio.
