Jesse Love came out on top at Daytona, for example, whilst Austin Hill was victorious at Atlanta. NASCAR phenom Connor Zilisch added his name to that list last weekend, showing his road course prowess with a win at COTA.

With all of that said, let's take a look at the start times for today's race and how you can watch all of the action unfold live.
