NASCAR Today: All-Star Race & Open 2025 start times, schedule and how to watch live on TV

The 2025 NASCAR All-Star weekend comes to a close today, Sunday, May 18, with the All-Star Open and All-Star Race set to take place at North Wilkesboro Speedway tonight.

The All-Star Open will be the first race to take place, seeing 100 laps of action around the 0.635-mile track, with the top two finishers earning themselves a spot in the All-Star Race main event.

The final spot in the All-Star Race will be determined by a fan vote, with that race then set to take place with 23 drivers and see 250 laps of racing action just hours later.

Look out for the 'promoter's caution' too, which allows the event organizers to throw a yellow at their discretion during the event. The rule has proved controversial among some drivers and could really spice up the action.

Of course, last year's All-Star Race was won by Team Penske's Joey Logano, edging the likes of Denny Hamlin and Chris Buescher that day to take the W.

Although no points are on offer, there is a $1 million prize up for grabs for the winner of the All-Star Race, and it will certainly be interesting to see who comes out on top this time around.

With that said, let's get into all of the timing and TV details you need to know ahead of today's action.
