NASCAR will begin its official relationship with one of its new TV partners a year earlier than planned.
The CW Network will begin its broadcast of NASCAR Xfinity Series a year earlier than scheduled as it will now broadcast the final eight races of the 2024 season, multiple sources confirmed to Motorsport.com on Thursday. The deal is expected to be signed Thursday and an official announcement of the change is expected later Thursday afternoon and will detail the reasons for the change, sources said.
Currently, NBC and FOX split the Xfinity races, with each broadcasting the series’ races during its respective half of the season. Last November, NASCAR unveiled a new seven-year, multi-billion-dollar TV rights deal for its Cup Series that includes a streaming component for the first time. Under the new deal which also begins in 2025, Fox will get 14 Cup races annually in the first half of the season including the Daytona 500.
