NASCAR announces packed schedule for next two months
After missing a significant portion of the schedule due to the coronavirus pandemic, NASCAR has revamped its summer lineup of races to try and make up for lost time, and announced a finalized (and absolutely packed) version of the schedule through the end of July on Thursday.
The NASCAR Cup Series will have six races in the month of June, before heading to Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the iconic Brickyard 400 on July 5th. The Xfinity Series, meanwhile, will run doubleheader race weeks at Homestead-Miami and Kentucky.
With the IndyCar Series returning on Saturday at Texas Motor Speedway, and the start of the Formula 1 season just one month away, racing fans will have plenty to watch this summer. Here’s a look at the upcoming schedules for the Cup Series, Xfinity Series and Truck Series.
