The NASCAR Cup Series heads to Talladega Superspeedway this weekend for the Jack Link’s 500 on Sunday, April 26. Talladega is a 2.66-mile tri-oval superspeedway and one of the biggest, fastest drafting tracks in NASCAR, which makes this another chaotic superspeedway-style DFS slate early in the 2026 season.

Track position, long run speed, and restart ability will be everything, as it’
