The big addition to the NASCAR schedule is a trip to Grant Park in downtown Chicago, and the Xfinity Series will take turns on the shores of Lake Michigan on Saturday, July 1. The street circuit weekend will be a big test for NASCAR and its aspirations to race more street circuits. There will be pressure on every series for a successful run that fans want to see more of.
The addition of a street circuit race in Chicago brings the Xfinity Series to eight road courses, nearly a quarter of the schedule. One makes the playoffs, with Charlotte Roval’s race serving as the limit race for the elimination round of 12. With road course ringer Allmendinger now driving in the Cup Series full-time for Kaulig Racing, the road races of the Xfinity series will look very different at the front in 2023.
As always, all eyes will be on the season-opening race at Daytona. Both Daytona races in 2022 have been eventful. Just ask Jeremy Clements, who was wrecked in the Daytona race in February at the start of the first stage and managed to win the Daytona race in August in triple overtime. Daytona can be calamitous and chaotic, and that’s the charm of one of America’s most famous racetracks.
