The 2023 NASCAR Cup Series heads to Lincoln, Alabama, this weekend after an action-packed NOCO 400.

GEICO 500 is the 10th NASCAR Cup Series race of the season and will be held on Sunday (April 23) at the Talladega Superspeedway. The action will kick off at 3:00 pm ET and will be broadcast on FOX and MRN.

The event will be contested over 188 laps at the 2.66-mile superspeedway. It marks the 108th race hosted by Talladega Superspeedway in the history of the Cup Series.

The Talladega Superspeedway, the longest oval track on the schedule, features 33 degrees of banking at the turn, 16.5 degrees of banking on the tri-oval, and three degrees on the backstretch. Drivers have to work together in the draft to succeed.

Motorsports journalist Bob Pockrass recently took to Twitter to share a list of drivers taking part in the 2023 GEICO 500.

38 cars will take on the green flag. Five drivers have changed on this weekend’s docket: #15 Rick Ware Racing’s Riley Herbst, #78 Live Fast Motorsports' BJ McLeod, and #36 Front Row Motorsport’s Todd Gilliland, #38 Front Row Motorsport’s Zane Smith, #51 Rick Ware Racing’s J.J Yeley, and #62 Beard Motorsports’ Austin Hill.
