A look at the circulating speculation about next year's NASCAR calendar, from possible street‑race revivals to tracks that may be left off the lineup.

NASCAR chief Steve O'Donnell has hinted that the Chicago Street Circuit could make a comeback on the 2027 Cup Series schedule, reviving a venue that last hosted races from 2023 to 2025. While the series is also eyeing Chicagoland Speedway, the final decision remains unsettled.

Speculation about the 2027 NASCAR schedule hints at revivals of iconic events, with key figures weighing in on logistics and fan expectations.

NASCAR is reportedly close to finalizing a new agreement that would return the Chicago Street Race to Grant Park in 2027, with discussions centered on shifting the event to May. The move would synchronize the race with the Sueños Festival and the Memorial Day weekend, while city officials remain in the loop but have yet to confirm any formal deal.
