Notes – Cup teams on known tire set-up for All-Star race at Texas: Having moved to an 18-inch bead diameter tire for 2022, NASCAR Cup teams will run a different tire set-up than those in the Xfinity and Camping World Truck Series at Texas this weekend . . . Cup teams ran this same combination of left- and right-side tires at Kansas last week and will run it again at Nashville later this season . . . this left-side tire code was also run at Dover three weeks ago, while this right-side code was run at Darlington two weeks ago, as well as Fontana and Las Vegas earlier in the season . . . in addition to the obvious construction changes in moving to an 18-inch tire, this set-up features compound changes to both sides of the car (more grip) compared to what Cup teams ran at Texas in 2021 . . . with this 18-inch tire, and its lower profile sidewall, NASCAR Cup cars will not run inner liners in any of their tires in 2022.

Notes – Xfinity, Trucks on Las Vegas, Kansas tire set-up at Texas: Teams in both the NASCAR Xfinity and Camping World Truck Series will run the same tire set-up at Texas this week . . . being on 15-inch bead diameter tires, these teams will run a different tire set-up than those in the Cup Series . . . compared to last year at Texas, this tire set-up features just a minor compound change on both sides of the car . . . this is the same combination of left- and right side tires that these teams ran at Las Vegas (both series) and Kansas (Trucks) . . . as on all NASCAR ovals greater than one mile in length, teams are required to run inner liners in all four tire positions at Texas . . . air pressure in those inner liners should be 12-25 psi greater than that of the outer tire.
