i seen another comment which i agree with CHARLOTTE FINALE

Maybe unpopular, but i think they should switch Charlottes playoff race to The Rock!!!! NC still gets their race, and us old heads get our old track back (with fresh pavement)!!!!!

I say maybe SMI should swap the second Vegas race in the Playoffs for North Wilkesboro. A comeback of North Wilkesboro with a points-paying race would be landmark. I think north Wilkesboro has made a case for a points-paying date with its hosting of the All-Star Race. Plus, the Las Vegas race has had low attendance especially last October. Maybe we should not be having a race in Las Vegas in the middle of football season.

the gen 6 im gonna be nostalgic of not because of the horsepower but because of how good they looked. if they had 800 hp that wouldve been so good

I have an Idea, hear me out… No playoffs, we’re not the NFL, stop trying to be like the NFL, we tried for 10 years and it doesn’t work. F1 exploded, and they didn’t need a dumb playoff gimmick, neither does Indy car, so at the very least go back to the 10 man chase, or get rid of it. Period!

Not feeling those changes.

Personally I would rather not have the stupid playoffs, but since we are stuck with them have it end at a different track every year. One year it is at North Wilkesboro, then the next at Bristol, then at Charlotte, etc.

If i remember correctly, this was delayed to the day after when this race finished. About 2-3 hours after that storm it was sunny out for the rest of the day but nascar called the race extremely fast.

Rate Lace Duel

Definitely need to get rid of the Charlotte Roval all together. Turn the second Daytona race into the road course there. It was good the Covid year. Definitely not two super speedways in the playoffs, it’s just ridiculous. The finale needs to be 400 miles wherever they go. 300 or 312 miles is not long enough and the short track package is crap so the finale must be at a 1 1/2 track every time.

Oh PLEASE don't let Phoenix be the last race of the year anymore. Put Homestead back or bring the final race to Charlotte. I'm begging you, NASCAR.

I want homestead back as the championship finale because racing at Phoenix for two races each year which can get very boring a big fan of gateway in the playoffs but I prefer just keeping it in June not a big fan of New Hampshire as the second race of the first round of the playoffs I don't know what is NASCAR thinking but I would love to see homestead back as the championship finale race because Phoenix every year can get very boring especially you have two races each year One race in spring and then One race in the fall

My only complain is, why we have FOUR flat tracks (Loudon, Gateway, Martinsville and Phoenix) i think should be more balanced, if it’s true, Christopher Bell would have the best opportunity to win the championship

I personally don't care what they do with "playoffs" schedule. With a crapshoot illegitimate format in place, I just want Homestead back as a finale.

Whatever...I will still be watching it.

No 2nd race for Dover is disappointing. Dover in the fall is awesome back in the day. Kick out New Hampshire. That track is boring asf

This schedule would remind me a lot of the 2020 season, Darlington Richmond Bristol vibes. Except for a longer duration

I hate Homestead-Miami. The races (especially during the next gen era) have been reallly bad. Boring and god awful, and I hope this is the beginning of the end for Homestead-Miam

Gateway is a great track, and with the Indy date for June already established, clearly Gateway is going to be a playoff track for NASCAR. I approve.

I wish New Hampshire would just get off the schedule overall. It's my least favorite.

Greatest Nascar racer of all time

This woman is a quintessential spawn of satan, shes gotta be, cuz this all be f***ed up

WTF. Where did this idea come from. 😊

Man I thought is was gonna be a mandatory diaper and pacifier rule 😅😅😅😅😅

And for the Ugly: The fact that it still exists.

I think that they should do it like the Super Bowl. Have it changed it every year.

So you fell for a CGI trailer. First time?.jpg

Winston Cup points

As a homestead resident I hate the new change however, as a nascar fan I understand the change. still really sad to see though considering the history

Still don't understand what renovations are needed at Homestead. It was completely fine hosting the championship for almost 20 years, and once other tracks get renovated, that automatically means Homestead needs to be upgraded too? All I can think of are the bathrooms and turn 1 grandstands. What else needs to be done? I know I shouldn't complain about getting renovations done. I'm cool new tracks getting a playoff date. Happy for Watkins Glen this year & Gateway next year. New Hampshire I'm concerned about because it's not one of NASCAR's best tracks. If they get a playoff race for a few years then great, but I"m hoping it's not for that long. Our schedule is made up of so many different tracks, that I think it's crazy to assume having an extra road course or plate race makes the whole playoff system a crapshoot.

During Jared's speculation video last week on the playoff changes I told you all Gateway was getting a new date and you all down voted me and said I was wrong (not saying I endorse the new date, kind of neutral on it, just saying it was happening). You all owe me an apology lol (joking I really don't care). I have a source at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway who said the reason Indycar changed their date for 2025 was because NASCAR was changing their Gateway date. I trusted my source on this one, and my source was right fools.

I just want the playoffs gone. This shit system is currently the biggest cancer holding the sport down.

New Hampshire is just an ass track. Had to force myself to watch it yesterday just to find out today its gonna be in the playoffs... should be removed from the season entirely

Why do people hate road course racing? It’s the ticket to younger, more global fan base smh

I like the southern 500 moving too. It being in the playoffs takes away from its focus that it is a crown jewel.

Well, when it comes to what Jordan Bianchi said about the possible changes to the playoffs in 2025, here's what I have to say about them: 1st, for Homestead, I really don't like the idea of it being removed from the playoffs next year because I had gotten used to seeing it return to the playoffs the last two years even though I still miss it hosting championship weekend, but with what we've been hearing about how they're pushing to have Homestead host championship weekend in 2026, I might be all right with it and I would like to see Homestead take place after the Daytona 500, similar to what they did in 2021 during the pandemic. 2nd, when it comes to New Hampshire, it was originally part of the playoffs from 2004-2017 and it would be a return to the playoffs for that track, but I would rather keep it in July and give Dover another shot in the playoffs. And finally, as far as Gateway goes, I'm 50/50 on that one. All-in-all, in the end, that's all I've got to say, so goodbye!

Me too @The Iceberg I’ve never liked Homestead as an attraction. Racing is great but I need more attractions and renovations like Phoenix for a Championship.

Not to mention yesterday only had 6 lead changes just feel they should figure out how to have this car work on the low banking more flat tracks

Should of thrown nashville or a different smi tracks over ethier gateway or new Hampshire do feel wasn't bad race yesterday but feel it showed that the short track package works on decent banked high speed tracks and not more flat tracks hope they can fine a way to fix it over changing it for all tracks cause iowa was crazy to show what kind of good can come from the package but all the other tracks are to flat to make the car work with the package

Plz nascar get rid of the Roval 🙏

Roval needs to go

I was at New Hampshire it should be back in the Chase

I like it. The playoffs races should consistently change and not remain consistent. That will help keep it fresh and create further parity which means more satisfied fans. The casual fans that is because we all know the diehards will complain no matter what but the casuals are the ones that ultimately matter the most. That's what all the other stick and ball sports have learned and why they're seeing huge increase in ratings and attendance. Especially baseball. Tradition doesn't mean much anymore to people, people want to be entertained and they want change that will bring more entertainment. Staying the same is not how you do that.

I'll be blunt: The playoffs as a whole is a crapshoot, and it's never going to be a true, legtitimate way to crown a champion to diehards anyway. So I say, make it a crapshoot, two superspeedways, two roadcourses, hell add the new detroit track. It's all about chaos and game 7 moments, so embrace the shithousery

NASCAR needs to toss out the stupid playoff system period.
