NASCAR Cup Series at Martinsville, full Cook Out 400 race results
While Bowman Gray Stadium hosted the preseason Cook Out Clash exhibition race, Martinsville Speedway is scheduled to host the first short track race of the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series regular season this weekend, and ironically, that race is also sponsored by Cook Out.
Sunday’s 400-lap Cook Out 400 around the four-turn, 0.526-mile (0.847-kilometer) Ridgeway, Virginia oval is the first of two race scheduled for the “Paperclip” in 2026, with the other being the penultimate race of the 10-race playoffs in November.
The 2025 season’s two Martinsville winners were Joe Gibbs Racing’s Denny Hamlin in March and Hendrick Motorsports’ William Byron in October.
It was a good start to the weekend for the two 2025 winners in 2026, as Hamlin took the pole position for Sunday’s race by posting the top lap time in Saturday’s single-car qualifying session, and Byron joined him on the front row.
A full starting lineup can be found here.
