TNT Sports and Amazon Prime Video are set to take over a portion of the NASCAR schedule in 2025, and it has announced Adam Alexander, Dale Earnhardt Jr., and Steve Letarte will be in the booth.
It is a return for Alexander. He called NASCAR on TNT races from 2010 to 2014 when it most recently held the package.
“I’m very excited to return to TNT Sports as they renew their coverage of NASCAR,” said Alexander. “I have great respect for Dale and Steve and look forward to calling races with them.”
Steve Letarte joins TNT Sports after previously working in the NASCAR on NBC booth. He served as crew chair for Dale Earnhardt Jr. from 2010 to 2014, winning the 2014 Daytona 500 in the process. He left NASCAR to join the NBC broadcast team in 2014.
“I am looking forward to joining the team at TNT Sports and working alongside Dale Jr. again in the booth,” said Letarte. “TNT has a long history of covering NASCAR and I am excited to contribute to that history next season when the green flag waves on TNT’s coverage in June.”
Dale Earnhardt Jr. had previously been announced as a member of the TNT Sports broadcast crew. He was sentimental about the sport’s return to the network.
“It’s so nostalgic to see TNT Sports return to NASCAR,” said Earnhardt Jr. “I enjoyed watching their coverage back in the day. I’m looking forward to being a part of the team and working with Adam (Alexander) and (Steve) Letarte.”
The crew of Adam Alexander, Steve Letarte, and Dale Earnhardt Jr. will also be the team for the Amazon Prime Video portion of the NASCAR Cup Series schedule beginning in 2025.
“We are thrilled to welcome Dale, Steve, and Adam as official members of the Prime Video family,” said Prime Video Director of Global Live Sports Production Jared Stacy. “We are excited for this group to bring their collective experience, passion and credibility to NASCAR fans as we begin our coverage next season.”
