The NASCAR Cup Series is set to arrive at New Hampshire Motor Speedway for its 25th race of the 2026 season . It is the only date at New Hampshire, as NASCAR only goes to the venue once per year. In 2025, Joey Logano won the pole for the Cup Series race at New Hampshire, marking his second and final pole position during the season.
First, the Cup Series needs to qualify for the event at New Hampshire, and the qualifying format is simple. Every driver will make a one-lap run, with the overall lap times determining the starting lineup. There will only be one round, and the groups do not matter in setting the starting lineup by the inside or outside rows. The metric system determines the qualifying order.
