How to watch the Pennzoil 250 NASCAR race without cable

If your cable subscription doesn't carry USA Network, or you've cut the cord with your cable company, you can still watch today's race. Below are the platforms on which you can watch today's game live.

Save $25 on Sling TV: The most cost-effective way to stream NASCAR races

One of the most cost-effective ways to stream today's race is through a subscription to Sling TV. To watch today's race, you'll need a subscription to the Blue tier, which includes access to your local network affiliate's live feed (excluding CBS) and USA Network. To level up your coverage and get access to ESPN and TNT, subscribe to the Orange + Blue tier plan (recommended).

The Blue tier is $45 per month. The Sling's Orange + Blue tier costs $60 per month, but the platform is currently offering over $25 off the first month of any pricing tier, making the Orange + Blue tier $35 for the first month.

Note: Because Sling TV doesn't carry CBS, you won't be able to watch CBS-aired programming like next year's NFL games on CBS. To watch these games, plus PGA golf, UEFA Champions League and more live sports, we recommend you also subscribe to Paramount+ with Showtime. Paramount+ with Showtime costs $12 per month after a one-week free trial.

Top features of Sling TV Orange + Blue tier:

Sling TV is also our top choice to stream network-aired Olympic coverage this summer.
There are 46 channels to watch in total, including ABC, NBC and Fox (where available).
You get access to NBA games airing on TNT next season (which you can't do with a FuboTV subscription).
All subscription tiers include 50 hours of cloud-based DVR storage.
