Wednesday marks the annual NASCAR All-Star Race. The race will award $1 million to the winner and the drivers will compete in a 140-lap, four-stage main event at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Automatic qualifiers were drivers that had won points races in 2019-20, past All-Star Race winners, and previous Cup Series champions.
More drivers can qualify for the All-Star Race in the All-Star Open, which is an 85-lap preliminary race that's split up into three different stages. The winner of each stage will advance as well as a remaining driver that advances through a fan vote.

The race, which was originally scheduled to take place in Charlotte, was moved to Bristol Motor Speedway following the outbreak of the coronavirus.
"The NASCAR All-Star Race is an event known for making history, and we will enhance that legacy by hosting the event at Bristol Motor Speedway," Speedway Motorsports President and CEO Marcus Smith said in a release which circulated in June.
"While Charlotte will always be recognized as the birthplace and traditional home for the All-Star Race, the current data surrounding the pandemic in North Carolina makes Bristol a better option for fan access this summer," Smith added.
