Iowa Corn 350 NASCAR Cup Series: Start times, schedule and how to watch

Get all the details on how to watch the first-ever NASCAR Cup Series race at Iowa Speedway, the Iowa Corn 350 Powered by Ethanol.

For over a decade, Iowa Speedway has been a staple for NASCAR's Xfinity Series (2011-2019) and Craftsman Truck Series (2009-2019). Now, the venue is primed to witness the premier Cup Series drivers battle it out on the track's unique 7/8-mile D-shaped oval layout.

This short track features dramatic banking angles - 10 degrees on the frontstretch, progressive banking of 12-14 degrees in the turns, and a 4-degree backstretch - all designed to deliver an action-packed race.

Kyle Larson secured the Busch Light Pole Award on Saturday to leave himself in prime position on Sunday's grid.

A rain interrupted qualifying session left drivers with just one attempt to set a best time due to one of the two planned rounds being eliminated by the weather.

So, if you're looking for a taste of NASCAR history in the making, here's everything you need to know about tuning in to the Iowa Corn 350.
