The 2025 season will be the first year under NASCAR's new TV deal that will take place until 2031. FOX will broadcast 12 races, [a] while NBC will broadcast 14 races. Amazon and TNT will broadcast five races each. [1] In addition, the season will mark the debut of NASCAR's in-season tournament. [2]

This will be the first season without Tony Stewart's ownership of Stewart–Haas Racing, [3] Gene Haas, the other co-owner of SHR, announced he would retain the team and rebrand it as Haas Factory Team for 2025. [4] This will also be the first season without 2017 champion Martin Truex Jr. as a full-time driver, as he announced his retirement from full-time racing on June 14, 2024. [5] This season will also mark the first with 32 chartered cars, down from the 36 chartered cars in place since 2016. The reduction follows a lawsuit by 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports against NASCAR over changes to the charter agreement. The two teams sought an injunction to compel NASCAR to allow them to compete as chartered entries, but the request was denied by the judge. [6] [7]

Joey Logano of Team Penske will enter the season as the defending 2024 NASCAR Cup Series champion. [8]

On October 2, 2024, 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports filed an antitrust lawsuit against NASCAR, alleging anti-competitive practices by the France family and challenging the terms of the updated charter agreement. The teams sought an injunction to compel NASCAR to allow them to compete as chartered teams, [65] [62] but the judge denied the request. [7] They originally filed an appeal but decided to withdraw their appeal and filed a new injunction. [66] Pending new injunction, both 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports will compete as open teams in 2025. [67]
