The NASCAR Cup Series season is headed West. In the first race at an intermediate track in the Gen 7 car, the tour will race at Auto Club Speedway on Sunday to kick off its West Coast swing.
This could potentially be the final race on the 1.5-mile configuration of the track, which might be turned into a short track in the coming years. Kyle Larson is the sportsbook favorite to win.
