After emerging from the carnage of the Daytona 500, NASCAR travels to Atlanta Motor Speedway for the first of two Cup Series races this season at the Hampton, Georgia, track.
Drivers and teams will now get a chance to reset following the 2024 season opener, though the racing at Atlanta could be somewhat similar to what occurred at Daytona. Pack racing has come to dominate the oval, which was reconfigured for the 2022 season and now features some of the steepest banks in the series.
William Byron, who won Monday’s Daytona 500, should be feeling quite confident heading into Atlanta. Byron also won the July race at the track last year and the spring race at Atlanta in 2022.
Who will celebrate Sunday in victory lane? Here is all the information you need to get ready for the Ambetter Health 400 at Atlanta Motor Speedway:

The Ambetter Health 400 starts at 3 p.m. ET at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
Fox is broadcasting the Ambetter Health 400 and has a pre-race show beginning at 2 p.m. ET.
The Ambetter Health 400 can be live streamed on the FoxSports website and on the FoxSports app.
The Ambetter Health 400 is 260 laps around the 1.54-mile track for a total of 400.4 miles. The race will feature three segments (laps per stage) — Stage 1: 60 laps; Stage 2: 100 laps; Stage 3: 100 laps.
William Byron won the July 9, 2023 race that was shortened from 260 laps to 185 because of rain. Byron led the final 19 laps before rain triggered the caution flag and NASCAR officials eventually called the race.
And one year ago, Joey Logano dominated, leading 139 laps before giving up the lead to Brad Keselowski on lap 231 only to reclaim it on the final lap. Logano edged Keselowski by 0.193 seconds on March 19, 2023.
