After an exciting inaugural showing at Naval Base Coronado, the NASCAR Cup Series will continue the California road-course theme with a trip to Sonoma Raceway on Sunday (3:30 p.m. ET, TNT Sports, HBO Max, PRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
The visit to the 1.99-mile venue will act as the 18th points-paying event of the 2026 season and be the first leg of the 2026 In-Season Challenge. Shane van Gisbergen is the defending winner.
Van Gisbergen, who finished 38th at Naval Base Coronado, will look to find his road-course-winning ways once again, piloting the No. 97 Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet in the hopes of capturing his second Cup Series victory of the 2026 campaign.
Thirty-six cars are entered into this weekend’s race.
