The NASCAR Cup Series will head to Charlotte Motor Speedway on Sunday, May 25 for the Coca-Cola 600 to close out an exciting racing weekend.
The race follows Formula One’s Monaco Grand Prix and IndyCar’s Indianapolis 500, making it the series’ longest race of the year at 600 miles.

NASCAR’s longest race is 400 laps around the 1.5-mile track for a total of 600 miles. The race will feature four segments (laps per stage) — Stage 1: 100 laps; Stage 2: 100 laps; Stage 3: 100 laps; Stage 4: 100 laps.
Kyle Larson, who was looking to complete both the Indy 500 and Coca-Cola 600 in the same day, crashed out of the Indianapolis 500 near the midway point. This was his second attempt at the feat. Larson finished 27th in the Indy 500 and left soon after the crash to compete in the NASCAR Cup Series Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday night.
In last year’s Coca-Cola 600, Christopher Bell led 90 of 249 laps, including the final 18 and was declared the winner under red-flag conditions. Brad Keselowski finished second and William Byron finished third.
