In recent years, NASCAR has made significant expansions in its road course events, increasing the number from just two to six, with a possible seventh race on the horizon.
While some drivers, like Brad Keselowski and Denny Hamlin, have expressed concerns over the abundance of road and street courses, NASCAR officials are still looking to add a new street race in San Diego to the schedule.
Despite the growing popularity of road courses among fans, there are mixed opinions within the NASCAR community on whether there are too many of these events.
Drivers like Hamlin have highlighted their preference for traditional oval racing and shorter track events, suggesting that the balance may need to be reassessed in the future.
Prominent figures in NASCAR, like Richard Petty, have also raised concerns about how road course races may impact the championship standings and the traditional focus of the sport on oval track racing.
