NASCAR is heading down to the Richmond Raceway this weekend for another slate of races in the 2021 NASCAR playoffs. To start things, we have the Xfinity Series race on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. ET which will air on NBC Sports Network. The Xfinity series will be followed up by another Saturday race to close out racing weekend. The Cup Series will run the Federated Auto Parts 400 Salute to First Responders, which will also air on NBC Sports Network, at 7:30p.m. ET.
Below we’ll take a look at the weather projected for the Richmond Raceway this weekend in Richmond, Virginia, with info courtesy of AccuWeather. Since we are still a couple of days out from race weekend, the forecasts are all tentative. So far, it looks like we’ll be set for plenty of sunshine to avoid any delays.
