Sunday’s Las Vegas Cup race: Start time, weather, lineup - NASCAR on NBC Sports

The Cup season continues Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, where Team Penske’s Joey Logano will look to win the track’s spring race for a third consecutive year.

He and teammate Brad Keselowski have combined to win four of the last eight Las Vegas Cup races dating back to the 2016 season.

Another driver to watch is Matt DiBenedetto from Penske-aligned Wood Brothers Racing. DiBenedetto, who seeks his first career Cup win, finished second in both Las Vegas races last year. He is in need of a rebound after starting this season with finishes of 33rd, 37th and 28th.
