Talking of Atlanta, last weekend, the race there ended in controversy, with many feeling that Kyle Larson was robbed of a well-earned victory due to the throwing of a late caution.

Elsewhere, Carson Hocevar's antics proved provocative, and it will certainly be interesting to see how his colleagues treat him if they get up close and personal today.

Having raced at COTA since 2021, the NASCAR Cup Series has four winners here in Chase Elliott, Ross Chastain, Tyler Reddick and William Byron. Will that list become five by this evening? Only time will tell.

With that said, let's take a look at all the details you need and how you can watch the action at COTA unfold live.
