Are you ready for the green flag to drop on the 2024 NASCAR season?
The NASCAR Cup Series is back in action in early February when the season kicks off with the Clash at The Coliseum exhibition race in Los Angeles before drivers and teams will trek across the country to prepare for NASCAR’s most famous race: the Daytona 500.
From there, 25 regular season races will follow as drivers battle to make the 10-race playoffs before a new champion is crowned in November.
In between, the series’ best drivers will compete in the All-Star race in May before NASCAR shuts down for two weeks in July and August while NBC televises the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. Fox and Fox Sports 1 will televise the first half of the Cup season, while NBC and USA Network take over coverage in the second half.
