\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTrackhouse Racing driver Shane van Gisbergen.<\/p>\n
A representative for Foxtel confirmed to Speedcafe that there will not be coverage of the third division stock car series.<\/p>\n
Fox Sports and Kayo Sports will have live coverage of Sunday\u2019s NASCAR O\u2019Reilly Auto Parts Series and Monday\u2019s NASCAR Cup Series.<\/p>\n
Van Gisbergen is tackling triple duties at The Glen, beginning with Saturday\u2019s race in the Truck Series with Niece Motorsports in the #4 Chevrolet Silverado.<\/p>\n
The Truck Series race starts at 6:30am AEST and will take in 72 laps of Watkins Glen with stage breaks at Lap 20 and Lap 40.<\/p>\n
It will be just the second Truck Series start for van Gisbergen after his 2023 debut at Indianapolis Raceway Park where he finished 10th.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m a lot more comfortable in the truck than I was last time,\u201d said van Gisbergen.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year, thankfully, they had Cleetus (McFarland) drive, who\u2019s a big fella. I jumped in the car, I had plenty of room \u2013 more room than I remembered.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a brand-new truck, so I was setting everything up how I wanted to. It\u2019s been a really cool experience doing that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Van Gisbergen will split Sunday between the O\u2019Reilly Series and Cup Series, with practice and qualifying for the Cup Series preceding the O\u2019Reilly Series.<\/p>\n
\u201cI find Saturday a little difficult in the O\u2019Reilly stuff going from one car to the other,\u201d van Gisbergen explained.<\/p>\n
\u201cTrucks is just Friday, so that should make it a lot easier and not having that crossover of the different vehicles.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m really just hoping for a fun weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2018He\u2019s the one\u2019: SVG names favourite for Watkins Glen<\/a><\/p>\n Van Gisbergen said the Truck Series and O\u2019Reilly Series cameos will be beneficial for the Cup Series as he understands how the addition of tyre bundles and tyre walls impacts the racing.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s going to be a good thing to do to understand, especially for racing,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ll probably try some things and on restarts I\u2019ll get to experience different things.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ll get put in positions that will really help for Sunday.<\/p>\n \u201cOne, it\u2019ll be fun doing more races, but two, I think it\u2019s a big advantage doing as many races as I can.<\/p>\n \u201cTha\u2019s one of the biggest reasons for doing it. The variables this weekend are bigger than ever.<\/p>\n \u201cThe weather, from the temperature to the rain possibly, then the layout of the track is completely different for two corners.<\/p>\n \u201cI think it\u2019s a no-brainer to do these [additional] races.\u201d<\/p>\n NASCAR O\u2019Reilly Auto Parts TV broadcast start time<\/p>\n Sunday, May 10 NASCAR Cup Series TV broadcast start time<\/p>\n Monday, May 11 For more of the latest NASCAR news and analysis, visit Speedcafe US<\/a><\/p>\n
