Daytona won’t host NASCAR’s Championship Weekend but what other tracks might?

Daytona International Speedway will not be among the tracks considered for NASCAR’s Championship Weekend, a senior executive said Tuesday.

So, no, the season won’t start and end at Daytona for those who suggest it.

But what tracks could be considered for the season finale?

NASCAR announced Tuesday that Homestead-Miami Speedway, a 1.5-mile track, will host the season finale for Cup, Xfinity and the Craftsman Truck Series on Nov. 6-8, 2026. Homestead hosted Championship Weekend from 2002-19.
