NASCAR Dover 2013 schedule: Matt Kenseth looks to stay atop Sprint Cup standings at AAA 400

The Chase for the Sprint Cup passes through Dover this weekend. Here’s how to be sure you don’t miss a lap.

The AAA 400 in Dover looms this weekend as Matt Kenseth looks to stay atop the standings in the Chase for the Sprint Cup.

The weather is expected to hold through the weekend with a 3:10 p.m. qualifying time on Friday afternoon along the one-mile oval track.

Last year’s winner, Brad Kaselowski, did not make the Chase this year, so the annual race will have a new winner in 2013. Carl Edwards, Greg Biffle, Jimmie Johnson and Kurt Bush are all past winners at Dover, and they will all challenge Kenseth this weekend.

Just about all the action, beginning Friday and carrying through to race day on Sunday, can be found on either the ESPN or Fox Sports families.

A full schedule of the weekend’s events can be found below:

Friday, Sept. 27: Qualifying, 3:10 p.m., ESPN2
Saturday, Sept. 28: NNS race, 3:30 p.m.
Sunday, Sept. 29: AAA 400 NCSC Race, 2 p.m., ESPN
