NASCAR Atlanta 2016: Start time, TV schedule and live stream for Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500
Johnson finished a disappointing 16th place in the season-opening Daytona 500 last Sunday in Florida, but is a three-time champion of the QuikTrip 500, including a win in 2015, one of five victories on the season for the six-time Sprint Cup champion.
Johnson will start in 19th position on Sunday.
Kurt Busch, who won the QuikTrip 500 all the way back in 2002, has the pole position for Sunday’s race.
