For the first time in nearly two years, the NASCAR Cup Series returns to wine country, California's Sonoma Raceway. Let Frontstretch.com's Joy Tomlinson set your NASCAR DraftKings lineup for Sunday's Toyota/Save Mart 350.

The Coca-Cola 600 was once the ultimate NASCAR Cup Series test of man and machine. The sport's longest race (Sunday, 6 p.m. ET, FOX) would cause equipment breakdowns over the final 100 miles while driver stamina proved crucial in a race that often takes well over four hours to run.

Few people have ever dominated a racetrack the way Jimmie Johnson and Hendrick Motorsports manhandled Dover International Speedway. The seven-time NASCAR Cup Series champion won 11 times in 38 starts, led over 3,100 laps and won his final points-paying race there in June 2017. Sunday's Drydene 400 (2 p.m. ET on FS1) is one of the few places Johnson remained competitive during the final few years of his career; he was third at the Monster Mile just last August.

The NASCAR Cup Series hits the halfway point on the 2021 regular season with a trip to Dover International Speedway. The Drydene 400 on Sunday will be the only time this season they'll visit the one-mile concrete oval known as the Monster Mile.

It's the first time in 51 years (1970) the Dover schedule has been reduced from two dates to one. Track ownership chose to shift the second date to long-dormant Nashville Superspeedway, which will host its first NASCAR race of any kind in a decade on June 20.

NASCAR has had its share of bizarre race names through the years. Just this February, the sport's Xfinity Series kicked off its schedule with the Beef. It's What's For Dinner 300. But the Buschy McBusch Race 400 is easily the strangest twist on sponsorship in recent memory.
