The NASCAR Canada Series is set to make a historic return to the short track of Autodrome Montmagny on July 4, 2026, with a doubleheader that promises two distinct races on the same day.
Fresh off a victory at Riverside on June 27, Kevin Lacroix enters the weekend as a strong contender, while series points leader Marc‑Antoine Camirand aims to extend his advantage in the championship battle.
Qualifying will follow a unique two‑lap sprint, with the fastest effort determining starting positions 1 through 15; the remaining spots will be filled by provisional entries based on owner rankings. Notably, the starting field for the XPN Delta Electrolytes 150 will be capped at 24 cars, including those provisional positions.
Both races will be run without a scheduled pit stop, placing emphasis on tire management; competitors will be allotted a single practice tire and four tires for qualifying and the race, a constraint that could reshape strategy.
Fans can watch the action live on REVTV Canada, the NCaS YouTube channel, and Twitter, ensuring broad coverage of the 0.375‑mile asphalt oval that will host a 125‑lap (46.88‑mile) contest followed by a 150‑lap (56.25‑mile) finale.
The event schedule includes practice sessions, qualifying, and the two races all on Saturday, July 4, creating a compact but intense weekend for drivers, teams, and spectators alike.
A weekend of high‑stakes racing
With the championship tightening and the unique tire limits in play, the doubleheader at Montmagny could prove decisive in shaping the remainder of the season, adding a layer of excitement for fans and competitors alike.
