NASCAR 2023 Talladega schedule, entry list, and how to watch

Hendrick Motorsports is back on top with Kyle Larson earning his second win of the 2023 season at Martinsville, beating Joey Logano and Martin Truex Jr.

Christopher Bell remains in control of the championship lead, five points clear of Ross Chastain.

Chastain enters Talladega as the defending winner of the April event, which marks his most recent Cup Series victory.

This week, Kaulig Racing had all points penalties rescinded during its final appeal, which came at the request of NASCAR in the interest of fairness.

Additionally, the No. 3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet of Austin Dillon was penalized after being taken back to the R&D Center for further inspection. They were docked 60 driver and owner points, as well as five playoff points. Crew chief Keith Rodden was suspended for the next two races and fined $75,000 as well.
