The 2024 NASCAR Cup Series is the 76th season for NASCAR professional stock car racing in the United States and the 53rd season for the modern-era Cup Series. The pre-season started with the Busch Light Clash on February 3 at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The Clash would then be followed by the Bluegreen Vacations Duel qualifying races on February 15. The season would then officially kick off with the 66th running of the Daytona 500 (the first points race of the season) on February 19, both at Daytona International Speedway. The season will end with the NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race at Phoenix Raceway on November 10.
This is the first season without 2014 champion Kevin Harvick since 2000, as he retired after the 2023 season and joined the NASCAR on Fox broadcast booth in 2024,[1] and the first season since 2011 without Aric Almirola, who stepped away from racing full-time after the 2023 season. In addition, this will be the last season for NASCAR's current TV rights deal, which began in 2015.[2] This will be the last season for Tony Stewart's ownership of Stewart-Haas Racing, as the team announced that they would be shutting down operations at season's end. Gene Haas will fully own the team, with the team being operated by current team president Joe Custer. The team will have one charter and run under the name Haas Factory Team in 2025.[3] This will also be the final season for 2017 champion Martin Truex Jr., as he announced his retirement from full-time racing on June 14.[4]
Ryan Blaney of Team Penske entered the season as the defending 2023 NASCAR Cup Series champion.[5]

Season summary
[edit]Regular season
[edit]Exhibition: Busch Light Clash at The Coliseum
The Busch Clash was moved from Sunday, February 4 to Saturday, February 3 in advance of the February 2024 California atmospheric rivers.

Denny Hamlin took the pole for the 23-car field, with notable drivers such as Daniel Suárez, Austin Dillon, Austin Cindric, and Christopher Bell failing to qualify for the 150-lap event. Hamlin led most of the first 50 laps before yielding the lead to Ty Gibbs on lap 50. Gibbs led 84 of the next 91 laps, as Justin Haley, Chase Elliott, and Todd Gilliland all failed to finish due to mechanical issues. Hamlin reclaimed the lead on a restart with ten laps remaining as Gibbs fell back through the field. Gibbs spun with two laps remaining, ultimately finishing 18th. Hamlin held off on the final restart to win.[157]

On lap 191, as the field entered turn 3, William Byron turned Brad Keselowski into the wall, collecting Blaney, Logano, Elliott, Denny Hamlin, Chris Buescher, Daniel Hemric, Todd Gilliland, Tyler Reddick, and others, resulting in a red flag. At the white flag, Ross Chastain was turned when Corey LaJoie made contact with Austin Cindric, bringing out the caution.

McDowell held onto the lead in the closing laps of the race until the last lap when Brad Keselowski attempted a crossover move from second.
