NASCAR is heading to Sonoma Raceway for the sport's only stop in California for the 2025 season. Here's what to know.

Sonoma Raceway will play host to its 36th Cup Series race Sunday — but it’s first in July. This is the latest in the calendar that NASCAR has visited the 11-turn, 1.99-mile road course of San Francisco. The previous 35 races were primarily held in June (from 1993-97, the race was run in May).

Along with high-speed action, NASCAR weekend at Sonoma Raceway will offer entertainment for fans off the racetrack, including a concert by country star Tim Dugger, an air show and the opportunity to see a giant statue of Richard Petty’s iconic cowboy hat.

Sonoma Raceway will open its 2025 NASCAR race weekend with the ARCA West and Xfinity series turning laps on the 1.99-mile road course. ARCA West will begin at 1:40 p.m. ET with an 80-minute practice leading into qualifying for a 64-lap race that will start at 6:30 p.m. ET.
