The 2025 NASCAR schedule remains largely unknown as the Cup Series heads into the second half of the season. This leaves many unanswered questions surrounding the schedule, and these are the biggest ones.
What’s Happening? The 2025 NASCAR National Series Schedules are here, new additions, wild changes, and familiar places are apart of…
What’s Happening? In 2025, NASCAR will try something different by incorporating an in-season tournament. Here is how the entire format…
The in-season Tournament is brand new for the 2025 season and begins on June 28th with Atlanta. How does the rest of the Tournament play out? If we follow the 2024 schedule, it would go to Chicago Street Race, Pocono, Indianapolis, and Michigan. Is that the schedule NASCAR wants for the in-season tournament?
NASCAR likely wants a variety of tracks for this part of the schedule, and this schedule is missing a short track. Maybe Indy or Pocono get swapped out for a short track like Richmond to finish off the schedule. Maybe we see a Nashville slot somewhere for a more traditional intermediate track race. Either way, plenty of changes could come to accommodate the In-Season Tournament.
What’s Happening? The Athletic’s Jordan Bianchi reported on “The Teardown” podcast that NASCAR is “Tentatively” planning on dropping three tracks…
After the New Hampshire race, Jordan Bianchi reported that New Hampshire, Darlington, and Gateway are “Tentatively” slated to join the Playoffs instead of Homestead-Miami and Watkins Glen. Bianchi reports that Homestead is moving to March. While Watkins Glen does not have a date yet, it seems likely the track will revert to its’ early-mid August date for 2025. The Darlington/Atlanta swap was expected as the first Playoff race of 2025 slots back in on Labor Day weekend when the Southern 500 at Darlington is.
The question becomes, where should New Hampshire and Gateway be put? Both tracks are further North, meaning weather could be a factor in the fall, so both races must be relatively early in the Playoffs. Does that mean other races like Talladega, Las Vegas, and Charlotte could bump further back into the schedule?
What’s Happening? As the 2025 NASCAR schedule slowly comes into focus, everyone wants to know the answer to one question:…
Since Garage 56 was announced, it has been widely speculated that NASCAR was looking to race internationally. Well, Jordan Bianchi reports that talks are “Progressing” between NASCAR, Mexico, and Canada to host a race.
In all likelihood, these races would be hosted on the Formula One track in those countries: Autodromo Hermanos Rodrigues in Mexico and Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Canada. According to Bianchi, one venue getting a date likely means Richmond losing one of its two dates. However, he did not specify what would happen if both tracks got a date, and both getting a date could spell doom for the next track we will discuss.
What’s Happening? NASCAR’s first Cup Series race weekend at Iowa Speedway was a home run success, with a sellout crowd…
NASCAR at Iowa was seen as a major success in 2024, but was it enough to keep this track on the schedule for 2025? NASCAR remains noncommittal on coming back to Iowa for 2025. The track’s small market and grandstands make many wonder what the venue’s future could be.
If NASCAR adds Mexico and Canada in 2025, something must go. Unfortunately, for the abovementioned reasons, Iowa might be the easiest one to drop. However, many want to see NASCAR return to the track after a solid first showing in 2024.
What’s Happening? Mike Joy dropped a 2025 schedule rumor during the Advent Health 400 at Darlington Raceway. After Ricky Rozier,…
According to Jordan Bianchi, NASCAR is expected to move the season-opening Clash to Bowman Gray Stadium in 2025. This would come after a three-year stint at the LA Coliseum, and it would take the concept of racing around a football stadium to a more intimate, grassroots venue. Should this happen, it would be a return of the Cup Series to “The Madhouse.”
NASCAR’s top division raced there 29 times from 1958 through 1971. However, holding The Clash there means it could very cold in North Carolina, which could create interesting conditions for drivers and fans.
