Bristol Motor Speedway (Bristol, Tenn.) — The kid finally did it. Make that, the grandkid. Ty Gibbs, grandson of Pro Football Hall of Fame coach Joe Gibbs, won his first Cup race in his 131st start, as he led the final 25 laps to capture an overtime victory at Bristol Motor Speedway. It was the 229th Cup victory for Joe Gibbs Racing, which is celebrating its 35th season this year. […]

The NASCAR Cup Series gets back on track at Bristol on Sunday, April 12 for the Food City 500 (3 p.m. ET, FS1). Kyle Larson got into Victory Lane at this race in 2025, with a winning margin of 2.250 seconds. However, with no wins so far in 2026, the Hendrick Motorsports driver could use a little of last year's luck when the Cup gets the green flag in Bristol […]

Alex Bowman, who has missed the last four NASCAR Cup Series races because of vertigo, will return to the Hendrick Motorsports No. 48 car this weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway. Bowman spent Tuesday in a street car turning laps on the Ten Tenths road course that is next to Charlotte Motor Speedway. He participated in pit-stop practice and did laps in a simulator Wednesday and was medically cleared to race. […]

Less than five weeks from the opening day of practice for the Indianapolis 500, and 31 entries have confirmed their participation. The race traditionally has 33 starters. There should be 33 on the grid come May 24th (10 a.m. ET on FOX). The bigger question is whether there will be 34 entries, leading one driver to be bumped from the field. And does it matter? Bump day is part of […]

Rockingham Speedway (Rockingham, N.C.) — Cleetus McFarland had finished his O’Reilly Series debut and had something to say. "All this internet talk got me thinking, maybe I shouldn't come back," McFarland told me and other reporters as he stood outside his car with a big smile. "Psyche. See you guys in two weeks. Talladega." There was a reason for the YouTube content creator to smile. He had done what was […]

Kevin Harvick might know NASCAR's next star pretty well. In fact, he might be influencing his driving style without even knowing it. Harvick's son, Keelan, is 13 and has already signed a long-term deal with Toyota Racing Development. He's following in the path of his father, and taking after his skills, too. That was displayed in a side-by-side shot on the latest episode of "SPEED with Harvick and Buxton" that […]

When NASCAR introduced the new Chase system and got rid of the win-and-in element to its postseason, there was the thought that drivers might not make bold moves or crew chiefs might not take chances because of the new points system. And in some ways, fans can argue that has happened. Crazy moves for the win where the leaders crash? Haven't seen it. But at least for one Cup race, […]

NASCAR has reinstated Daniel Dye, but Dye will no longer drive for Kaulig Racing. The 22-year-old Dye missed one truck race under an indefinite suspension before completing sensitivity training for comments he made on a livestream. He mocked the voice of INDYCAR driver David Malukas, made inferences about Malukas’ sexuality (inferences that apparently had no basis in fact) and raised his voice octaves in tone in a way of making […]

Does a driver have to win their respective race to earn the recognition of Driver of the Week? That is the question FOX Sports' Kevin Harvick and Will Buxton debated during the latest episode of "SPEED With Harvick and Buxton." Harvick says yes, while Buxton thinks otherwise. That was reflected in their choices for Driver of the Week after NASCAR's Cook Out 400 and INDYCAR's Children's of Alabama INDY Grand […]
