The NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series will stage its United Rentals Driven to Serve 250 on June 20 at the Naval Base Coronado in Coronado, California. The 3.4‑mile street circuit, which winds through the naval installation, will run 60 laps for a total distance of 204 miles.
Pole Position and Favorites
Brent Crews will start from the pole, the coveted front‑row position, and enters the weekend as the bookmakers' favorite. He will be joined on the grid by a mix of rising talent and seasoned road‑course specialists.
The starting lineup also features Parker Retzlaff, Anthony Alfredo, Austin Hill, Carson Kvapil, Sam Mayer, Sheldon Creed, Austin Green, William Sawalich and Sammy Smith in the top ten, setting up a diverse field of competitors.
A Shift in the Lineup
Notably absent from the entry list are Shane van Gisbergen and Connor Zilisch, who have dominated recent road‑course events. Their omission opens the door for other drivers, with Daniel Suarez’s victory in Mexico City last year standing as the most recent road‑course win by a competitor outside the van Gisbergen‑Zilisch duo.
The race will be televised on the CW Network, with live streaming options on Fubo and NASCAR.com, giving fans multiple ways to follow the action from home.
The Coronado street course presents a unique challenge, combining tight downtown sections with sweeping coastal straights. Its 3.4‑mile layout will test drivers’ precision and strategic tire management over the 60‑lap distance.
Teams and Institutions
A host of racing organizations are slated to field entries, including Joe Gibbs Racing, Viking Motorsports, Richard Childress Racing, JR Motorsports, Haas Factory Team and Peterson Racing Group, each bringing technical expertise and sponsor support.
Fans can expect a competitive showdown as the new lineup reshapes traditional road‑course hierarchies, while the broadcast partnership with the CW and digital platforms aims to broaden the sport’s reach.
