What’s Happening?
The NASCAR Xfinity Series will be exclusively on the CW in 2025. This deal brings the Xfinity Series to one network with mobile and at-home viewing options. So, how do you watch all NASCAR on the CW has to offer?
- In 2025, the CW will join several other providers for NASCAR coverage. However, the CW will join FOX as the second network to hold exclusive full-season broadcast rights to one NASCAR National series. Previously, FOX and NBC split Xfinity Series coverage from 2015 to 2024.
- NASCAR on the CW has a sleek new design that stands out amongst the rest of the NASCAR landscape. Furthermore, the network opted for a fresh team, made up of play-by-play talent Adam Alexander along with analysts Jamie McMurray and Parker Kligerman.
- The CW broadcasts full races as well as live practice and qualifying coverage, which is exclusively on the CW App. The network also has a pre-race show, NASCAR Countdown Live, which airs on the CW thirty minutes to one hour before the race.
How to watch Practice and Qualifying
In 2025, NASCAR Xfinity Series practice and qualifying is exclusive to streaming on the CW App for the entirety of the season.
Fans do not need a service provider to log in or create an account with the CW to watch practice and qualifying; they simply download the app and stream.
How to Live Stream NASCAR Xfinty Races in 2025
What’s Happening? The 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series saw a major change to its broadcasting last fall. The CW took over coverage…
How to Watch on Raceday
You can watch NASCAR on the CW at home with an antenna or with cable or live TV streaming services like YouTube TV.
Unfortunately, the CW app cannot be used to watch races live. However, they are available via replay in an app one day after the race. The app is available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
Fans watching at home can find the CW using the CW Channel Locator by entering their zip code. This locator uses your location to provide you with the antenna station and any available cable, dish, or streaming channels it would be on.
How to Watch NASCAR Countdown Live
NASCAR Countdown Live airs on the CW, which is the same principle as watching the race; however, Countdown Live airs on the CW roughly 30 minutes to one hour prior to the start of the race.
How to Watch in Car Cameras
The CW will air-select in-car cameras throughout the race weekend via the CW App. You can preview that weekend’s in-car cameras by going to the CW Sports tab and clicking on the NASCAR Xfinity Series icon.
