What channel is the NASCAR Xfinity Series at Iowa on today? Time, TV schedule

The NASCAR Xfinity Series returns to Iowa Speedway for the first time since 2019 for Saturday’s Hy-Vee Perks 250.

The Xfinity Series ran races from 2009-19 at the track, including two races per season in 2011-19.

Despite the recent lack of track time on Iowa Speedway, only John Hunter Nemechek and Ross Chastain are running the Xfinity Series race before Sunday’s Cup race (the first Cup race on the track) among the Cup full-time drivers.

Shane van Gisbergen has won the last two Xfinity races on the schedule, but Iowa will be a different challenge than the two recent road-course races.
