Halfway through the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series regular season, 11 different drivers have won the first13 races, and if that pace keeps up, it could complicate which 16 drivers make the playoffs in September.
But for now, that’s all on pause because the NASCAR All-Star Race, a midseason exhibition event, is on Sunday. It’s not for points, but it’s typically a fun and fast-paced event with a large purse on the line — plus bragging rights, obviously.
And while the venue, Texas Motor Speedway, remains the same as last year’s All-Star Race, NASCAR has, of course, altered the format of the event and placed a greater emphasis on pit crews, including during qualifying. But it’s a lot to keep track of, so we’re here to help.
