Contested over 500 laps on the .533-mile (0.858 km) short track, it was the 24th race of the 2019 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series season.

Despite its short length, Bristol is among the most popular tracks on the NASCAR schedule because of its distinct features, which include extraordinarily steep banking, an all concrete surface, two pit roads, and stadium-like seating.

[11] Matt DiBenedetto was the fastest in the final practice session with a time of 14.892 seconds and a speed of 128.848 mph (207.361 km/h).

Dave Burns, Parker Kligerman, Marty Snider and Kelli Stavast reported from pit lane during the race.

Brad Gillie, Brett McMillan, Jim Noble and Wendy Venturini handled the action on pit road for PRN.
