NASCAR Sonoma road-course Race: Time, TV channel for TNT coverage from California
A third was finally added in 2018 when Charlotte Motor Speedway went road-racing for its second race of each season, and along the way invented the word roval to define its combination of road course and traditional oval, which is actually a quad-oval, but let's move along.

These days there are five road courses. Not only that, this weekend the Cup Series runs its second road-course race in seven days. A week after the Chicago Street Race, they disturb the peace in California's wine country, where Sonoma Raceway is host to a Cup race for the 36th time since 1989.
VOTE Where should NASCAR host next street race after Chicago?
Sonoma Raceway in Northern California provides one of NASCAR's most scenic backdrops.
The best current road-course racer in NASCAR, Shane van Gisbergen, attempts the hat trick after winning the past two Cup roadies — in Mexico City last month and Chicago last week.
And if you're thinking, "I'd like to watch that, I wonder if I can," you're in luck. You can watch that, along with other NASCAR racing, and if you thought we were gonna keep the times and channels a secret, you're sadly mistaken.

The deal was first reported by Jim Callis of The rookie's signing bonus is above the slot value for his pick at $8,770,900 and is the highest ever for a player out of high school. The 18-year-old was the No. 4 pick despite being the top-ranked prospect in the draft. The Washington Nationals used their No. 1 pick on fellow Oklahoma high school shortstop Eli Willits, who signed for a reported under-slot bonus of $8.2 million. Holliday's reported bonus is tied for fourth-highest in MLB draft history with the Nationals' Dylan Crews, drafted out of LSU in 2023. The Rockies gave Charlie Condon, the No. 3 pick last year, $9.25 million. The high school shortstop and Oklahoma St. recruit became the third member of the Holliday family to be drafted and the second to be selected in the first round. His older brother, Jackson, was taken as the first overall pick by the Baltimore Orioles in 2022. His father, Matt, was a seventh-round pick by the Rockies in 1998 and played in Colorado for six of his 15 major-league seasons. Jackson Holliday received a signing bonus of $8.19 million from the Orioles. At the time, it was the largest bonus given to a high school player.

Does Your Car Insurance Cover Flood Damage? What You Need To Know Before The Next Storm
Editorial Note: We earn a commission from partner links on Forbes Advisor. Commissions do not affect our editors' opinions or evaluations. Flooding can wreck your car in minutes, and if you're not prepared, it might wreck your wallet just as fast. As extreme weather becomes more common across the U.S., more drivers are asking an important question: If my car gets caught in a flood, will my insurance cover it? The answer depends on the kind of coverage you have. And if you only have basic liability coverage, you likely won't have protection against flood damage. Does Your Car Insurance Cover Flood Damage? In July, heavy rains led to severe flooding across parts of New York and New Jersey. Flooded streets and subway stations caused major disruptions throughout the region. If rising waters damaged your car, it could have suffered serious damage, from engine and electrical issues to soaked interiors. Unfortunately, regarding flood damage, not all car insurance policies offer equal protection. If you want protection against floods, you need comprehensive coverage. This type of insurance typically covers fire, theft, vandalism and flooding. It's usually optional but included in many full coverage plans. Liability insurance, which most states require, won't cover damage to your vehicle. It only pays for damage or injuries you cause to others. Collision coverage won't help either, as it only applies if you crash into another car or object. So, if rising waters catch you off guard, comprehensive coverage is what you'll want to have on your side. What's Covered Under Comprehensive Coverage? If you have comprehensive coverage, your insurance may cover: water damage to the engine or electrical systems ruined upholstery or interior mold or mildew caused by flooding repairs—or even a complete replacement if the car is totaled What's not covered? Your belongings inside the car. If a flood soaks your laptop or new handbag, this would fall under your renters' insurance or homeowners' insurance policy, if you have one. What To Do If Your Car Gets Flooded If a flood damages your car, here's what to do: Don't try to start the vehicle. Turning on a flood-damaged car can worsen the damage. Take photos. Document the damage from every angle. Call your insurance company. File a claim as soon as possible. Wait for the adjuster. A claims representative will inspect the damage and help you figure out the next steps. Depending on the extent of the flooding, your insurer will decide if the car is repairable or should be declared a total loss. Is It Worth Adding Flood Coverage? Adding comprehensive coverage is a smart move if you live in an area where storms, hurricanes or flash floods are common. It's not free, but it's usually affordable, often around $100 to $300 extra per year, depending on your car and where you live. Here's something many drivers don't realize: You usually can't wait until the last minute to add flood coverage. Once a storm is named or on the radar, most insurance companies pause new policies or changes. If you're considering adding comprehensive coverage, don't wait for the clouds—get it sorted before the forecast turns. Here are some of Forbes Advisor's picks of the best car insurance policies to choose from. Bottom Line Floods aren't just a coastal problem—they can hit almost anywhere, and your car is often one of the first things at risk. If you're unsure what your insurance covers, now's the time to look. Once the water starts rising, it's too late to make changes.
