NASCAR Cup Series 2024 schedule: Dates, times, networks
Iowa joins the Cup calendar, the Indianapolis oval returns and Atlanta and Watkins Glen both get playoff races
The NASCAR Cup Series will embark upon a 36-race calendar in 2024, introducing one completely new track, welcoming back an iconic circuit and shuffling its playoff deck.
The 7/8-mile Iowa Speedway will host a Cup race for the first time ever on June 16, 2024 after years of hosting Xfinity and Truck Series events. In addition to Iowa, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway's iconic 2 1/2-mile oval rejoins the series after three years of running the infield road course.
Due to NBC's Olympic broadcast commitments, there will be a two-week break between races at Indy (July 21) and Richmond (Aug. 11).
Atlanta Motor Speedway's high banks and Watkins Glen have been added to the first round of the playoffs, while Darlington will not host the playoff opener anymore. Instead, the traditional Labor Day weekend race takes the Daytona night race's spot as the regular-season finale.
