NASCAR is set to make a highly anticipated comeback at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Illinois, for the first time since the 2019 season.
Weekend Schedule
The action kicks off on Friday, July 3, with the Ashley Furniture 150 ARCA Menards Series race, followed by the Cuervo 300 NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series event on Saturday, July 4. The centerpiece, the eero 400 Cup Series race, will close the weekend on Sunday, July 5.
Fans can look forward to a packed on‑track program that includes practice sessions, qualifying rounds and multiple races across the 1.5‑mile oval, providing a full slate of competition over three days.
The races will be broadcast on a variety of networks, ensuring that viewers across the country can tune in to the excitement from the Illinois venue.
Why the Return Matters
The decision to re‑add the historic track to the schedule comes as the Chicago street course was removed, underscoring the series' commitment to traditional oval venues. For local fans, the event offers a rare opportunity to experience top‑level stock car racing without traveling far.
