NASCAR will return to Sonoma Raceway for a three‑day weekend that begins on June 26 and concludes on June 28, 2026. The schedule includes practice, qualifying, and race sessions across the series, marking a pivotal moment in the 2026 season.
A Technical Challenge on the 1.99‑Mile Road Course
The 12‑turn layout, measuring 1.99 miles, is widely regarded as one of the most demanding road circuits on the NASCAR schedule. Its elevation changes, tight corners, and varied camber require precise braking zones and strategic overtaking, testing drivers’ skill and car setup.
The centerpiece event, the Toyota/Save Mart 350, will be televised on TNT and streamed via HBO Max. Supporting the Cup Series, the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series and the ARCA Menards Series West will each have their own broadcast homes, with the former airing on The CW and the latter on FloRacing.
