NASCAR Race Today: Martinsville start times, schedule and how to watch live on TV

The 2025 NASCAR Cup Series hits Martinsville Speedway today (Sunday, March 30) for the Cook Out 400.

Today's race marks the seventh points-scoring Cup Series event of the season and comes after an exciting race last time out at Homestead. Kyle Larson was the winner in Florida, completing a late overtake on Hendrick Motorsports teammate Alex Bowman to take the win — his second of the weekend after also winning the Truck Series race on Friday.

At Martinsville this weekend, Larson would love to make it two in a row but is likely to face plenty of competition around the 0.526-mile circuit. Both of his Hendrick teammates looked strong in qualifying, for example, whilst Christopher Bell won the pole for Joe Gibbs Racing.

Don't discount Bell's teammate Denny Hamlin, either. The driver of the No. 11 Toyota is the most winningest active driver at the track in the Cup Series with five Martinsville wins under his belt and lines up in fifth position for today's race.

With Martinsville having hosted Cup Series racing since 1949, it will certainly be interesting to see who comes out on top at the iconic short track this afternoon.

With that said, let's get into all the details you need to know ahead of what should be another exciting day of racing action.
