Terms and Conditions of Voting

ELIGIBILITY AND HOW TO VOTE

 

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY.  Voting for the 2026 All-Star Fan Vote (“Fan Vote”) begins at 12:00:00 PM (ET) on Monday, April 13^th, 2026, and ends at 09:00:00 AM (ET), on Sunday, May 17, 2026 (the “Voting Period”).  During the Voting Period, you can vote by:

 

(a) Visiting  www.nascar.com/fanvote (the “Fan Vote Page”) and following the links and instructions at such webpage to complete (in its entirety) and submit electronically to vote; or,

(b) Downloading the most recently updated version of the complimentary, official “NASCAR Mobile” application (the “APP”) to the entrant’s smartphone and following the instructions within the APP to complete (in its entirety) and submit electronically to vote via your mobile browser.

From the Fan Vote Page, you can view the list of NASCAR Cup Series™ drivers eligible to participate in the Fan Vote. To be eligible for the Fan Vote ballot, a driver must:

(1)   Hold a valid NASCAR Membership and License as a driver for 2026 NASCAR Cup Series competition (e.g. membership in good standing, not under suspension) at the time of the 2026 NASCAR All-Star Race;

(2) Have attempted to qualify for the 2026 Daytona 500; and

(3) Have met all other eligibility requirements as determined by NASCAR^®. 

Such driver must not be otherwise eligible to participate in the NASCAR All-Star Race™. 

Any eligible Fan Vote candidate that wins a 2026 NASCAR Cup Series race event prior to the NASCAR All-Star Race, , and /or has the lowest combined finishing positions from Segments 1 and 2, will automatically gain entry into the NASCAR All-Star Race and is no longer eligible for the Fan Vote race entry.  Subsequently, such driver’s name will be removed from the Fan Vote ballot, their accumulated votes will be voided, and the next eligible driver with the most Fan Votes will transfer into the NASCAR All-Star Race.

In order for a driver to be eligible for the Fan Vote race entry, that driver must:

(1)      Have the most Fan Votes;

(2)      Finish Segment 1 and Segment 2 of the NASCAR All-Star Race; and

(3)      Have a vehicle in raceable condition at the time called as determined by the NASCAR Cup Series Managing Director. 

In the event the driver with the most Fan Votes does not meet these requirements, the next eligible driver from the Fan Vote will transfer into the NASCAR All-Star Race. Subsequently, the driver(s) with the higher Fan Votes will be removed from the Fan Vote ballot and their accumulated votes will be voided.

To cast your vote for your favorite eligible NASCAR Cup Series™ driver select the ‘vote’ button for that driver.  You may vote for one (1) eligible NASCAR driver per ballot submission.  You may submit five (5) ballots per 24 hours per unique email address (i.e., 12:00:00 AM ET to 11:59:59 PM ET) (each ballot submission, a “Vote”). Entries generated by script, macro or other automated means may be void.  The use of multiple name variations or other methods to create additional votes by a single individual during any one (1) day period is prohibited.  Violation of these terms and conditions may result in disqualification of the Vote from the Fan Vote as determined by NASCAR Digital Media, LLC (“NDM”).

VOTING RESULTS

Voting ends at 09:00:00 AM Eastern Time on Sunday, May 17th, 2026.  The eligible NASCAR Cup Series® driver who receives the most Votes, and finishes Segment 1 and Segment 2 of the NASCAR All-Star Race in raceable condition as determined by NASCAR in its sole discretion (i.e., the driver’s NASCAR All-Star Race car is able to start and compete in Segment 3 of the NASCAR All-Star Race under green flag conditions in accordance with the Series Rule Book requirements), will earn a spot in the NASCAR All-Star Race Segment 3 field.  The NASCAR All-Star Race is scheduled to take place at Dover Speedway on Sunday May 17th, 2026.  The Fan Vote winner will be announced immediately following the completion of Segment 2 of the NASCAR All-Star Race.  Segment 3, the final segment, of the 2026 All-Star Race will consist of 26 drivers, including 2025/2026 Cup Series race victors, former Cup Series champions who compete full-time, the Fan Vote Winner, and the remaining drivers based on the lowest combined finishing positions from Segments 1 and 2.
