NASCAR announced the creation of an in-season tournament set for 2025, in partnership with Amazon Prime Video and TNT Sports, offering a $1 million prize to the champion. Driver seeding for the head-to-head bracket among the top 32 drivers will be determined by the final three races airing on Prime Video. The seeding will be based on best finishes in each race, with tiebreakers determined by subsequent finishes and season point position. TNT Sports will broadcast the five races following Prime Video’s, with the highest-finishing driver from each race advancing in the tournament. The tournament is part of NASCAR’s new media rights partnerships spanning from 2025 to 2031, aiming to enhance fan engagement and storytelling throughout the season.
