The 22nd race of the 2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup season comes on Sunday in New York with the Cheez-It 355 at Watkins Glen.

NBCSN will provide coverage of the event, beginning with the ‘Countdown to Green’ pre-race show at 1:30 p.m. ET, with host Krista Voda and analyst Kyle Petty and Parker Kligerman.

Race coverage begins at 2 p.m. with Rick Allen on play-by-play, joined in the booth by analysts Steve Letarte and Kyle Petty. In addition, the broadcast will feature pit reporters Marty Snider, Kelli Stavast, Dave Burns and Mike Massaro.

A.J. Allmendinger has the pole position, and won the 2014 Cheez-It 355, but will have to fend off a pair of past champions. Five-time Watkins Glen winner Tony Stewart starts third on Sunday, four-time winner Jeff Gordon starts fifth, and two-time winner Kyle Busch starts eighth.

The race can be followed online and via mobile devices through NBC Sports Live Extra. The race will re-air on NBCSN on Monday at 12 p.m.
