A Weekend of Speed on the West Coast
The NASCAR weekend that has been generating buzz in Southern California is set to culminate this Saturday with the Anduril 250 qualifying session, a pivotal moment that will determine the starting order for the upcoming race.
A day earlier, on June 19, Kyle Larson turned heads by leading the on‑track practice on the 3.4‑mile temporary street circuit that winds through the Naval Base Coronado, a course that blends high‑speed straights with tight urban corners.
Qualifying will be split into two groups, each given a 20‑minute window to set their fastest laps; the combined fastest times from the two sessions will ultimately shape the grid for the main event.
The on‑track action is slated to begin at 2:30 p.m. Eastern, which translates to 1:30 p.m. Central, giving fans on the West Coast a prime afternoon viewing slot.
Broadcast rights have been secured by Amazon Prime Video, which will carry the live coverage, while streaming will also be available through the same platform and NASCAR.com; audio fans can tune in via SiriusXM, though a subscription is required for that feed.
Radio listeners will find coverage on both SiriusXM and the Motor Racing Network, ensuring multiple avenues for fans to follow the excitement.
The street circuit itself, laid out on the Naval Base Coronado grounds in Coronado, California, measures 3.4 miles and showcases a unique blend of military‑base infrastructure and coastal scenery, promising a distinctive challenge for the drivers.
