The NASCAR Cup Series makes its way to Upstate New York for road-course racing on Sunday (2 p.m. ET, USA Network, HBO Max, MRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio, NBC Sports App).
Forty cars mark the entry list for this week’s Go Bowling at The Glen. A notable addition to the starting grid will be up-and-comer Connor Zilisch, who will pilot the No. 87 Red Bull Chevrolet for Trackhouse Racing for the fourth time this season. The 19-year-old’s most recent appearance in the Cup Series came at EchoPark Speedway near Atlanta on June 28, earning his best career finish to date in 11th place. Zilisch made his Xfinity Series debut last fall at Watkins Glen and did so with a splash, winning the pole position and leading 45 of 90 laps to score the win. He is currently tied with JR Motorsports teammate Justin Allgaier for the Xfinity Series points lead.
Additional part-time entries include Katherine Legge in the No. 78 Live Fast Motorsports Chevrolet, J.J. Yeley in the No. 44 NY Yacing Team Chevrolet and Josh Bilicki in the No. 66 Garage 66 Ford.
RFK Racing’s Chris Buescher is the defending winner at The Glen and enters 23 points above the provisional elimination line in the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs standings with just three races remaining in the regular season.
