The Complete 2025 NASCAR Cup Series TV Schedule
What’s Happening? Ahead of a change-filled 2025 season, NASCAR officially released its 2025 TV Schedule and where to watch on Wednesday….
As part of NASCAR’s new TV deal, TNT Sports will join Amazon Prime Video to cover the NASCAR Cup Series season. Fox Sports and NBC Sports will also be the exclusive broadcasters for the NASCAR Cup Series.
Traditional TV will broadcast races live on FOX, FS1, NBC, USA, and TNT Sports. However, with the addition of Prime Video, NASCAR will stream exclusively for five races.
Furthermore, Warner Bros. Discovery’s streaming service, MAX, will simultaneously stream the five races on TNT. This season is not the first time NASCAR will be simultaneously streamed on a streaming service, as NBC did so for Peacock subscribers in 2024.
While TNT and Prime make up just ten races on the schedule, they will also carry practice and qualifying coverage for the entire season, minus select races. Fox and FS1 will have All-Star Race, Clash, and Daytona 500 practice and qualifying, while Prime takes the first half of the season, and TNT takes the second half through its sister channel TruTV and MAX.
Watch With Existing Provider
For those with Cable or satellite subscriptions, several apps can provide live broadcasts for at least 31 of the 36 races on the NASCAR Calendar. Each app is available on both the Google Play and Apple App Store.
For the 14 races on either NBC or USA, you can watch races live on the NBC Sports App. For FOX’s 15 races, including the All-Star Race, Daytona 500, and Cookout Clash, you can use the Fox Sports App. You can watch TNT’s five races on the Watch TNT App, and for practice and qualifying, you can watch them on the truTV App.
With Streaming App
When it comes to streaming, there are several options to watch the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series.
First, the only required streaming subscription is Prime Video, which will have five races plus practice and qualifying coverage for the first half of the season. Optional subscriptions include MAX and Peacock, both of which have apps on Google Play and Apple App Stores.
If you miss a race, NASCAR also has backup options. They quickly upload race replays on YouTube and NASCAR Classics. Furthermore, NASCAR’s new free streaming channel, the NASCAR Channel, will broadcast 2025 race replays on TubiTV, which requires no subscription.
Live TV Streaming Services
For those looking for a more traditional route, there are on-the-go options such as live TV streaming services like Fubo TV, Sling, and YouTubeTV.
