The 2025 NASCAR Cup Series is the 77th season for NASCAR professional stock car racing in the United States and the 54th season for the modern-era Cup Series. The season started with the Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium on February 2 at Bowman Gray Stadium, followed by The Duel at Daytona on February 13, and the 67th running of the Daytona 500 (the first points race of the season) on February 16, both at Daytona International Speedway. The season will end with the NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race at Phoenix Raceway on November 2.

The 2025 season is the first year under NASCAR's new TV deal that will last until 2031. Fox will broadcast twelve races (including the Clash, Daytona Duels, and All-Star Race), while NBC will broadcast fourteen races. Amazon and TNT will broadcast five races each. [1] In addition, the season marked the debut of NASCAR's In-Season Challenge, which was won by Ty Gibbs. [2]

This is the first season without Tony Stewart's ownership of Stewart–Haas Racing since 2008. [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 is also the first season without 2017 champion Martin Truex Jr. as a full-time driver since 2005, as he announced his retirement from full-time racing on June 14, 2024. [5] This is also the first season since 2015 to have more than forty cars in a race with the new Open Exemption Provisional rule. [6]

The 2025 season is the first under the new charter agreement, which limits teams to a maximum of three charters. Hendrick Motorsports and Joe Gibbs Racing, which have four charters each, are grandfathered in the new agreement. [7]

Joey Logano of Team Penske enters the season as the defending 2024 NASCAR Cup Series champion. [8] Following the Cook Out 400 at Richmond Raceway, William Byron of Hendrick Motorsports clinched the regular season championship.

Katherine Legge made her Cup Series debut in March at the Shriners Children's 500, making her the first woman to compete in the Cup Series since Danica Patrick in the 2018 Daytona 500. [9] Legge is set to compete in more Cup events throughout the season. [10] [11] [12]

The 2025 Viva México 250 marked the first time the Cup Series had a points-paying race outside the United States since 1958. [13]
