Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Denny Hamlin delivered a wild finish to the inaugural NASCAR iRacing Pro Invitational series race last week at a virtual Homestead-Miami Speedway, and NASCAR’s best drivers will be back online to participate in a nationally televised race on Sunday.
Hamlin edged Earnhardt Jr. to claim the win in a race filled with tight battles and plenty of accidents, and the first broadcast on Fox seemed to be a hit with fans. Mike Joy and Jeff Gordon will be back on the call Sunday for a race at virtual Texas Motor Speedway, the site of Earnhardt Jr.’s first career Cup Series win.
The O’Reilly Auto Parts 125 will begin at 1:00 p.m. ET on Fox.
You can stream the race online via fuboTV.
