The NASCAR Sprint Cup series continues Sunday as drivers roll into The Watkins Glen International for the Cheez-It 355 at the Glen. Just five races remain until the start of the Chase for the Sprint Cup, meaning qualifying points are only becoming more scarce.

The green flag is scheduled to drop at 1:18 p.m. ET, but ESPN’s pre-race coverage begins at Noon. It’s also being shown on WatchESPN.com and RaceView. If you can’t get in front of a screen, you can listen to race coverage on Sirius XM channel 90. It’s also livestreaming on motorracingnetwork.com. You can also follow the race with our live updates of the Watkins Glen 2013.

Earlier this week, Marcos Ambrose won the pole with a record-setting qualifying lap. His lap time of 128.241 mph broke the track-record set last year by Juan Pablo Montoya. Ambrose is attempting to win his third straight race at Watkins Glen.
