With the new broadcast contract set to run through 2031, NASCAR has added to the list of broadcast networks carrying its races across the series.
One of the new additions is Prime Video who will carry five races this summer.
On March 11, Prime Video announced the broadcast crew for their five races.
New NASCAR Hall of Fame driver Carl Edwards is retuning to racing to be a part of Prime Video’s pre and post race coverage. Edwards will be joining host Danielle Trotta and fellow driver Corey LaJoie. A third generation driver, LaJoie is also the host of the podcast “Stacking Pennies”.
Trevor Bayne, Kim Coon, and Marty Snider will be cruising pit road keeping fans up on the activities prior to the race and during the races themselves.
Adam Alexander, crew chief Steve Letarte, and NASCAR Hall of Fame driver and co-owner of JR Motorsports Dale Earnhardt Jr will hold down the broadcasting duties in the booth high above the track.
Coordinating producer at Prime Video Alex Strand Sr spoke on the lineup saying, “we’re thrilled to introduce Carl, Trevor, Kim and Marty to our NASCAR on Prime Video team. Carl’s Hall-of-Fame career, combined with the extensive experience of Trevor, Kim, and Marty, brings an unparalleled authenticity to our coverage. Their deep knowledge and genuine passion will resonate with fans and elevate the NASCAR viewing experience. We look forward to showcasing our entire announce team when we debut in just a few short months.”
Danielle Trotter, LaJoie, and Carl Edwards will be new faces to longtime NASCAR fans; while Bayne, Letarte, Alexander, Coon, Snyder, and Dale Jr are veterans when it comes to pit reporting and as broadcasters.
Currently, Prime Video is carrying only Cup Series practice and qualifying broadcasts until FOX Sports completes their portion of the broadcasting duties.
Prime Video will take over the broadcasting duties beginning with the longest races of the year – the Coca-Cola 600 – at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The remaining races being broadcast on Prime Video are the race at Nashville Superspeedway, the Firekeepers Casin 400 at Michigan, the race in Mexico City, and the race at Pocono Raceway.
