NASCAR San Diego races this weekend on a 3.4‑mile street circuit built inside Naval Base Coronado, creating a new type of proving ground for the Cup series.
Race Day Highlights
Shane van Gisbergen, the recent road‑course champion, looks to dominate the event after winning six of the last seven street venues. Denny Hamlin, who captured his third consecutive Cup win last week, sits alone in ninth on the all‑time leaders list with 64 victories and is 20 points shy of season champ Tyler Reddick.
Christopher Bell will compete with a fractured left wrist; the team has Brent Crews on standby should the injury interfere. The field comprises 39 cars, with open seats highlighted in italics. Trackhouse’s Project 91 returns, sporting former Formula 1 driver Kevin Magnussen, while 23XI Racing and Legacy Motor Club add entries for Corey Heim (No. 67) and Jimmie Johnson (No. 84).
