Next season will end at Homestead-Miami Speedway, but where will it start?
Ben Kennedy, Vice President of Nascar Executive, Innovation Director and Racing, on Tuesday, said the Clash performance race will not be internationally organized next year, although it is still a choice after 2026
“I think that until next year, it is likely that it will still take place in the United States,” Kennedy answered a question from NBC Sports. “However, I will never rule out the possibility of international organization in the future. We have a lot of thoughts about the organization before the season, at the time outside the season, a performance race. This is a great opportunity for us to bring the Nascar race to other parts of the world.
“I think it is a problem we will continue to consider, but at least now, we may keep this problem in the country.”
Kennedy did not say where Clash would take place next year. This event was held at Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, in February after spending three years at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Chase Elliott won this event in February at Bowman Gray.
There are some information that Clash can be held on an international scale next year.
The organization of Clash on a international scale will allow Nascar to bring the Cup Series to a new market without interrupting the schedule. There will be a lot of time before Clash for teams to send equipment and travel and return before coming to Daytona for the 500 -season race.
Because the Clash tournament moved from Daytona, this event was held before the Daytona 500 weeks. Daytona 500 years later scheduled to take place on February 15.
This season, the Series Cup will organize the first international score race since 1958 at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in Mexico City on June 15.
