Will NASCAR Remain America’s Top Motorsport?

Formula 1’s surge in America just hit another level, and this time it’s directly brushing shoulders with NASCAR’s territory. A late-night Vegas race pulling one and a half million US viewers, matching Bristol numbers, and doing it all while most of the country was getting ready for bed, says a lot about where the motorsports landscape is shifting. Add the toys, the documentaries, the movie success, the cultural buzz, and suddenly it feels like F1 is showing up everywhere NASCAR used to dominate.

• Why is F1 exploding with young fans while NASCAR struggles to define its identity with its own core audience?
• Is NASCAR’s cable-heavy media deal going to stabilize the sport, or push it further behind the growing competition?
• How much can other series like IMSA, IndyCar, or even the NHRA chip away at NASCAR’s longtime stranglehold in the US?
• And by the time the 2032 media deal arrives, will NASCAR still be king, or will America’s top motorsport look very different?

Motorsports in the US is shifting fast, and the next decade looks like a tug of war that nobody would’ve predicted ten years ago. Whether NASCAR holds on, F1 climbs even higher, or another series wakes up and steals the spotlight, this is a moment where everything feels up for grabs. Share your thoughts, as the next few years could significantly reshape the entire landscape.
