Last weekend is now well behind us, however, with qualifying around the 0.526-mile track today set to offer a unique challenge, with just 12 degrees of baking on the turns and a track surface that is asphalt in some places, and concrete in others.
The last time that the Cup Series raced at Martinsville was the for Xfinity 500 in late October last year, and on that occasion, Martin Truex Jr. was the man to come out on top, just edging Chase Elliott and William Byron, who were both competing in the playoffs at the time.
It will certainly be interesting to see who comes out on top this time around, and we've got all of the details you need to know ahead of this afternoon's action below, including how you can watch it all unfold live.
