What is the Format of the New NASCAR In-Season Tournament?

Similar to the NBA’s recent launch of the NBA Cup, NASCAR is the latest sport to in on the in-season tournament, which they describe as “reminiscent of the NCAA’s March Madness — but for stock car racing.”

Per NASCAR, here’s how it will work:

The tournament will consist of five races, beginning on June 28, 2025, with a Saturday night race at unpredictable Atlanta Motor Speedway. Following Atlanta, the tournament will move to the Chicago Street Course on July 6, then to Sonoma Raceway on July 13, Dover Motor Speedway on July 20 and conclude at Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the annual Brickyard 400 on July 27. The tournament winner will receive a $1 million prize.

Seeding will be based on the best finish of the final three races included in Amazon’s coverage, and during tournament races, “drivers will compete head-to-head, with the highest-finishing driver in each matchup advancing to the next round. The field will be narrowed down from 32 drivers in the opening race to 16 in the second, eight in the third, four in the fourth, and finally, two drivers battling for the tournament win in the fifth and final race.”
