NASCAR Cup Series Qualifying: Talladega 2025 start times, schedule and how to watch live on TV

After no racing over Easter, the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series continues at Talladega Superspeedway this weekend, with qualifying ahead of the Jack Link's 500 taking place on Saturday, April 26.

Last time out at Bristol, it was Alex Bowman who secured pole position for the Food City 500. However, come race day, it was another Hendrick Motorsports star that proved dominant — Kyle Larson.

Larson led for an impressive 411 of the 500 racing laps at the Tennessee track, winning the race and denying Denny Hamlin a 2025 Cup Series three-peat.

Talladega is a very different proposition from the short track at Bristol, however, with the race this weekend marking NASCAR's return to superspeedway action.

The 2.66-mile tri-oval is known as the largest oval on the NASCAR schedule, with up to 33 degrees of banking in some parts.

With that said, qualifying ahead of the race should be exciting to watch, and we've got all the details you need to do so below.
