A Legendary Premiere
NASCAR Studios is set to debut its original documentary series *Start/Finish* on August 16, kicking off a month‑long celebration of Mark Martin, a NASCAR Hall of Famer whose memoir *Never Lift* chronicles decades of triumphs and setbacks.
The series blends candid interviews, rare archival footage and personal reflections to paint a vivid portrait of the drivers who have shaped modern NASCAR.
Martin’s episode traces his rise from short‑track dominance to 40 premier‑series victories and five runner‑up finishes, emphasizing the perseverance and sportsmanship that earned him lasting admiration despite never capturing a championship.
Future installments will spotlight upcoming Hall of Fame inductees Kevin Harvick and Jeff Burton, extending the series’ reach to the next generation of legends.
Broadcast exclusively on the NASCAR Channel, the series is also available on major streaming platforms including Prime Video, Roku and NASCAR.com, ensuring broad access for fans worldwide.
Beyond individual stories, *Start/Finish* underscores NASCAR’s global footprint, sanctioning over 1,200 events each year across 11 countries and 30 U.S. states, a testament to the sport’s enduring popularity.
