Uitzenddatum: Sep 11, 2021

The Federated Auto Parts Salute to First Responders 400 marks the 130th Cup race hosted by Richmond Raceway in the series’ history. The .75-mile oval located in Henrico County, Virginia has an asphalt racing surface with 14 degrees of banking in turns 1-4. With 8 degrees on the frontstretch and 2 degrees on the backstretch, this track is similar to an intermediate track but races like a short track. The Federated Auto Parts Salute to First Responders 400 marks the 2nd time the Cup Series has visited Richmond in 2021, with Alex Bowman winning the first race back in April. Richmond held its first Cup race in 1953 and Lee Petty won.
