2022 NASCAR at Texas - Start time, how to watch, entry list & more

The Round of 12 opens at Texas Motor Speedway this weekend, a race some are calling one of the most crucial in the entire NASCAR Cup Series playoffs.

Watch: Preview Show: Texas will be most important Round of 12 race

It was a clean sweep for non-playoff drivers in the Round of 16. Chris Buescher snapped a six-year winless streak and returned RFK Racing to Victory Lane at Bristol. 

He became the 19th different winner of the 2022 season.

In a hectic race of attrition, four drivers were eliminated from the playoffs. They were former Cup champions Kyle Busch and Kevin Harvick, as well as Richard Childress Racing's Tyler Reddick and Austin Dillon.
