The start time for Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway is actually the same as originally scheduled even though the event was moved back to early August rather than late July as part of NASCAR's updated schedule. The New Hampshire race will be shown on the same TV channel as originally scheduled, too.
Due to the same coronavirus pandemic-related issues that shut down live sports in March, NASCAR created a modified schedule of races for May, June, July and August that continues today at 3 p.m. ET at the one-mile oval located in Loudon, N.H. It is the third NASCAR Cup Series race scheduled to be shown on NBCSN this season.
Scheduled to take the green flag shortly after 3 p.m. ET, Sunday's race at New Hampshire will feature 301 laps for a total of 318.46 miles.
Below is all you need to know about the schedule for Sunday's NASCAR race at New Hampshire and beyond.

What time does the NASCAR race start today?
- Race: Foxwoods Resort Casino 301 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway
- Date: Sunday, Aug. 2
- Start time: 3 p.m. ET (Green flag at 3:18 p.m. ET)
The green flag for Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race at New Hampshire is scheduled to wave at 3:18 p.m. ET, assuming there are no rain delays as there have been so often since NASCAR returned to live racing in May.
Though NASCAR will have plenty of time to get the race in with the sun not setting in Loudon until shortly after 8 p.m. ET, the relatively late start time for an afternoon race is notable because New Hampshire Motor Speedway does not have lights.
It's worth noting that Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race is a standalone event with no Xfinity or Truck Series races at the track this weekend, so NASCAR would not need to worry about schedule conflicts should the Cup race get delayed by weather.
What channel is NASCAR on today?
NBCSN is the TV channel for Sunday's NASCAR race at New Hampshire as originally scheduled, which wasn't the case for the network's first two races of 2020. Of the 20 NASCAR Cup Series races NBC will broadcast in 2020, 12 were scheduled to be shown on NBCSN with the other eight on NBC's flagship cable network.
As for Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race on NBCSN, the network has a channel finder feature for viewers to find the TV channel options in their areas.
As is the case for all the Cup Series races on NBC and NBCSN this season, Rick Allen will call the race with the assistance of analysts Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Burton and Steve Letarte.
NASCAR live stream for New Hampshire race
Anybody who has a cable or satellite subscription can stream Sunday's NASCAR race at New Hampshire live via NBCSports.com or the NBC Sports app. This should be the preferred route for a viewer who has such a subscription but isn't able to get in front of his or her TV.

The Darlington race on May 17 ran instead of the the Chicagoland race that was originally scheduled for June 21. The Darlington race on May 20 ran instead of the postponed Richmond race that was originally scheduled for April 19. The Charlotte race on May 27 ran instead of the Sonoma race that was originally scheduled for June 14.
The Pocono doubleheader remained as previously scheduled for the final weekend of June, with the Cup Series racing on back-to-back days. Those races were presented on Fox (and FS1) rather than on NBC. Fox closed its coverage this season with the All-Star Race at Bristol on July 15.
The previously postponed races at Dover and Michigan are now part of Saturday-Sunday doubleheaders at those respective tracks in August.
Because New York requires people to quarantine for 14 days after traveling from one of the states impacted heavily by COVID-19 (including North Carolina), the Watkins Glen race on Aug. 16 was moved to the Daytona road course. According to The Athletic, NASCAR tried to get a quarantine waiver for its Watkins Glen races but was denied by Gov. Andrew Cuomo's office.
The Aug. 16 race will be the NASCAR Cup Series' first on the road course at Daytona.
