MIAMI — NASCAR asked its fans where they would prefer seeing championship weekend held, and the majority of those who responded picked Homestead-Miami Speedway.
NASCAR listened.
The 2026 season will end in South Florida, with stock car racing’s championship weekend returning to Homestead-Miami next year. It will be the first time since 2019 that the title winners — for the top-tier Cup Series, second-tier Xfinity Series and third-tier Truck Series — will be crowned there and will start a rotation where NASCAR will move its final weekend around various tracks.
How that will work in 2027 and beyond remains unclear, but from Nov. 6-8, 2026, Homestead is the spot.
“I like that we move it around,” said reigning Cup Series champion Joey Logano, who won the crown last fall at Phoenix Raceway — which will host this season’s finale as well — and the first of his three titles at Homestead-Miami in 2018. “That was one of the things that I always thought would be a great idea if we were able to pull it off, right? The Super Bowl doesn’t stay in the same place every year. Why should our Super Bowl, our championship race, stay in same place every year?”
