Full 2024 NASCAR Cup Series calendar
The Indianapolis oval will return to the NASCAR Cup Series calendar in 2024, replacing the unpopular road course. After three years of chaos and driver criticism, NASCAR has decided to switch back to the 2.5-mile oval at IMS. Another change is the cancellation of the Bristol dirt race, with the first Bristol event returning to a concrete surface. However, NASCAR has not ruled out hosting dirt races in the future. Notable events on the 2024 calendar include the Chicago Street race on July 7th and the Daytona 500 on February 18th. The playoffs will begin on September 8th in Atlanta, with the Championship-deciding race taking place at Phoenix on November 10th, after the 2024 Presidential election.
