Chevrolet Eyes Ninth Straight Win at Chicagoland
On July 4, the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series will roll into Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Illinois, for a 300‑mile showdown that promises fireworks under the summer sky. Pole position goes to Connor Zilisch, who will lead a field that includes Chase Elliott, Kyle Larson and a handful of other top‑tier drivers.
Chevrolet has turned the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series into its own playground, capturing nine consecutive victories and looking to extend the streak. The brand’s engines have become synonymous with speed on 1.5‑mile tracks, while Toyota has managed only two wins all season, underscoring the competitive gap.
Fans can catch the action live on the CW Network, with a simultaneous radio broadcast from the Motor Racing Network and streaming on NASCAR.com, the NASCAR app, and FUBO in limited markets. The race will also be available through the Motor Racing Network’s radio feed, ensuring multiple ways to follow the competition.
Recent history at Chicagoland adds extra intrigue: Cole Custer and Kyle Larson have both tasted victory here in past editions, and with five regular‑season races remaining, several contenders are perched on the Chase bubble, making every lap count as the season heats up.
