ESPN2 To Have Live Coverage of NEXTEL Cup Race

The NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series will be in action Tuesday morning and ESPN2 will have live coverage of the rain-delayed event from Michigan International Speedway beginning at 10 a.m. ET.

The 400-mile race was postponed due to inclement weather on its original Sunday date and was rained out again Monday at the 2-mile oval in Brooklyn, Mich.

Dr. Jerry Punch will anchor ESPN2’s NASCAR coverage from Michigan, joined in the booth by 1989 NASCAR Cup champion Rusty Wallace and two-time NASCAR champion crew chief Andy Petree for analysis. Allen Bestwick, Dave Burns, Jamie Little and Mike Massaro will report from the pits.
