The first week of the NASCAR season featured Fox Sports providing coverage for all of the on-track sessions. That changes moving forward.

Just like last season, the majority of practice and qualifying sessions will move to Prime Video for the first half of the season. Fox Sports will still air every Cup Series race from EchoPark Speedway (Atlanta) this weekend to Watkins Glen International on May 10. Prime Video will just provide coverage as drivers set the the field.
The last race on the Fox Sports schedule will be the All-Star Race at Dover Motor Speedway. Fox Sports will air all of the sessions that particular weekend before closing out its portion.
Prime Video will then take over coverage for the next five races on the Cup Series schedule, which includes a crown jewel race.
The streamer will air practice, qualifying, and the races during weekends at Charlotte Motor Speedway (Coca-Cola 600), Nashville Superspeedway, Michigan International Speedway, Pocono Raceway, and Naval Base Coronado.
Prime Video requires a subscription, for which Amazon offers multiple plans. The annual plan combining Prime Video with Amazon Prime is $139 (includes ads). A monthly plan is $14.99 with ads. The annual student plan is $69. The monthly student plan is $7.49.
The Prime Video standalone plan is $8.99 per month, with ads. The Prime Video monthly plan without ads is $11.98.
The TV coverage shifts once again after the historic weekend at Naval Base Coronado. TNT will take over for five races while covering the second edition of the In-Season Challenge, which awards the top driver $1 million.
The TNT portion of the schedule will begin with Sonoma Raceway on June 28. It will continue with Chicagoland Speedway, EchoPark Speedway (Atlanta), North Wilkesboro Speedway, and Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Last season, practice and qualifying moved to truTV and Max for the TNT portion of the schedule. These sessions then remained on truTV and Max for the rest of the season as NBC Sports closed out the year.
The NBC sports portion of the season begins with Iowa Speedway on Aug. 9. It continues for the rest of the year, ending with the championship race at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Nov. 8.
