Amazon Prime Video is the first streaming-only broadcast partner for NASCAR Cup Series racing. Here's what to know about the NASCAR on Amazon Prime race broadcasts.

Sunday night’s Cracker Barrel 400 (7:15 p.m. ET estimated green flag) from Nashville Superspeedway marks the second of five Cup Series races this year carried exclusively by Amazon on their Prime Video service.

NASCAR's new TV deal with Amazon Prime begins this weekend at Charlotte. Prime gets the next five races, and a free trial comes in handy right now.

If you aren’t a Prime Video subscriber yet, you can get started with a 30-day Amazon Prime free trial, including Prime perks like the Prime Video streaming service, free two-day shipping, exclusive deals, and more. After the free trial, Amazon Prime costs $14.99/month or $139/year.

FOX has been the undisputed home of NASCAR, covering races with a formula familiar to fans: lagging commentary, missed key moments, and overstuffing of ads. The post Amazon Prime Breathes New Life Into NASCAR as They Flip the Script With Viewership Numbers appeared first on EssentiallySports.

Amazon Prime Video gets off to a hugely positive start at the Charlotte Motor Speedway by impressing NASCAR fans with its broadcast.

Amazon Prime Video has secured the rights to broadcast five exclusive NASCAR Cup Series events, starting with last weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Amazon Prime’s message is simple: better quality, more driver focus and easier access for fans. And it’s working. “Absolutely need to give them their flowers” one fan wrote. “Maybe my expectations have been so low with driver marketing lately but [it] actually gave me chills.”

Dale Earnhardt Jr. is back at the top of the popularity meter once again following his return to the broadcast booth with Amazon Prime Video in the NASCAR Cup Series. This makes it a good moment to look back at the former driver’s illustrious racing career and relive the victories that made him who he is today.
