A week after the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series ran at the largest track on the circuit it now heads to the smallest in Martinville.
Martinsville Speedway marks the first race of the third round in the 2014 Chase for the Sprint Cup. Heading into the third round there are eight drivers who remain eligible to win the championship this year.
Jeff Gordon won this event a year ago while Kurt Busch – who was eliminated from championship contention in round one – won here in the spring.
With only 43 cars on the entry list everyone will make the race.
