At Talladega Superspeedway, NASCAR Hall of Famer Dale Earnhardt Jr. will make an interesting visit as a special guest analyst in the FOX booth.
Earnhardt is a long-time member of the NBC broadcast crew, so the announcement came as a shock.
Along with Mike Joy and Clint Bowyer, FOX has used a variety of broadcast booth personnel this season. Tony Stewart, Jeff Gordon, Danica Patrick, Chad Knaus, and Darrell Waltrip were among those who were in attendance.
“Dale joining us in the booth says so much about his love of the sport of NASCAR, and there is absolutely no one more equipped to call a race at Talladega,” said Brad Zager, FOX Sports President Production & Operation and Executive Producer. “We appreciate that he is willing to share his time and experience for the upcoming FOX NASCAR race from one of NASCAR’s most popular venues, and we are grateful to NBC Sports for letting Dale spend some time with us.”
Earnhardt is among the most accomplished drivers in Talladega Superspeedway history, with his legendary father holding the record for most wins at the 2.66-mile course. Dale Jr. is tied with Brad Keselowski for the most wins at Talladega.
“I’m really looking forward to having some fun with Mike, Clint and Larry (McReynolds) and the rest of the team,” said Earnhardt. “Calling a race from Talladega is an incredibly fun experience. You absolutely have to be on your toes at all times … it doesn’t take much for all hell to break loose.”
On April 24th, NASCAR returns to Talladega for the 10th round of the 2022 season.
