A part of the ancients Never stop calling the Busch series. Others were finally used to saying Xfinity.
Now we will have to learn again The new name from the second level Nascar racing league. Xfinity, which is part of the Comcast family, has attached their name to the series in the last decade, but after this year, its names of denomination disappear – although Xfinity is still very involved with Nascar.
The company will remain one of the NASCAR “First” partnersWith Busch Light and Coca-Cola (Geico abandoned its first sponsorship last season).
In addition, Xfinity will gain visibility in the Big League Cup series. Announced this week, the driver who turns the fastest tour of each race will earn a bonus point for turning the “fastest tour” – the same incentive is promulgated in the Xfinity and Trucks series.
Name changes are nothing new for Nascar
The name changes are not new to the XFINITY series, born as a sports division in 1950, the third season of NASCAR as a sanction organ after its foundation in Daytona Beach at the end of 1947.
An overview of the name changes:
What is the continuation after the release of Xfinity?
Who is the next one? Maybe no one. In 2020, after a few name changes during this century, Nascar’s upper division, which was the Monster Energy Nascar Cup series since 2017, abandoned all corporate attachments and became the NASCAR CUP series.
Keeping the “cut” in the name resumed the change at the Winston Cup in the early 1970s.
If there are no new business name names agreements, with what name Nascar will he work? Well, there is a good chance that there will be another corporate label for the series.
But there is no doubt: all the options for 2026 and beyond are discussed in the corner offices, even before the start of the 2025 season.
