More tire testing opportunities provided to Cup drivers

It was previously announced that Sprint Cup testing at Daytona in January would no longer be held in 2015, no would any private testing for that matter. However, there will still be many more chances for Cup teams to test their Goodyear brand tires at other tracks. There are also plans for general team and Goodyear testing lined up at several tracks throughout the year.

The first testing session will be held on January 19 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and participants will be Stewart-Haas Racing (#4, #10, #14, #41), JTG Daugherty Racing (#47), Team Penske (#2, #22) and Joe Gibbs Racing (#11, #18, #19, #20).The next group session will take place at Atlanta Motor Speedway on March 2 and 3, the day after the Cup race, and will feature Richard Childress Racing (#3, #27, #31, #33), Chip Ganassi Racing (#1, #42), Roush Fenway Racing (#6, #16, #17) and Michael Waltrip Racing (#15, #55). The last initial group session will be on March 10 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, featuring Hendrick Motorsports (#5, #24, #48, #88), Furniture Row Racing (#78), Richard Petty Motorsports (#9, #43) and BK Racing (#23, #26, #83, #93).
