The 47th running of the FedEx 400 will be on Sunday at Dover International Speedway in Delaware, the 13th of 36 races in the 2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup season.
Jimmie Johnson enters the weekend fifth in points this season. He has won the event four times, one shy of Bobby Allison’s Dover record. Johnson has won the FedEx 400 two of the last three years, and starts in 14th position on Sunday.
Denny Hamlin took the pole position during qualifying on Friday.
Fox Sports 1 will provide coverage of the race beginning at 1 p.m. ET, with play-by-play announcer Mike Joy joined by analysts Darrell Waltrip and Larry McReynolds. The broadcast will also feature reporters Jamie Little, Chris Neville, Vince Welch and Matt Yocum.
Kyle Busch is a two-time winner of the FedEx 400, and starts in 10th position on Sunday. This is his second race of the season, after returning from injury to finish 11th in Charlotte last week.
“It was no surprise at all Kyle Busch ran as well as he did because we know he’s an extraordinary driver, athlete and person. Although he qualified 17th, I thought he had a top-five car most of the night,” McReynolds said this week. “He had to pit with 20 laps to go, but in my book, that was another victory for Joe Gibbs Racing that night in just his second time back in a car and in a race that was four times the length of the All-Star Race. Now we’re headed to Dover, where Kyle Busch has two Sprint Cup wins.”
The race can be followed online and via mobile devices through Fox Sports Go. The race will re-air on Fox Sports 1 on Monday at 10 a.m.
