Joey Logano claimed a third NASCAR Cup Series Championship title in seven years last November when roaring to victory in the Championship Race at Phoenix Raceway in Arizona. With the new 2025 NASCAR season fast approaching, the 34-year-old from Connecticut will now have his sights set on becoming the first driver to go back-to-back since Jimmie Johnson to clinch a fifth Championship in a row in 2010.
2024 was also a momentous year for Team Penske, who notched a third successive Cup Series crown. In doing so, they became the first team since Hendrick Motorsports in 2010 to three-peat. If the Clash exhibition race at Bowman Gray Stadium whetted your appetite for another season of NASCAR action, there's no need to fret, as we don't have long to wait until the engines start purring for the Daytona 500' (Sunday, February 16), which officially lifts the flag on the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series.
Let GOAL tell you everything you need to know about the NASCAR 2025 Cup Series below, including the full season schedule, race results, and how you can watch all the live action this year.
