Schedule

[edit]

On 16 December 2024, the official calendar for the 2025 season was announced, featuring 14 races across 13 weekends, including a doubleheader weekend with the NASCAR Cup Series and NASCAR Xfinity Series at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez. Compared to 2024, the final race would be held in Puebla instead of Mexico City. [3][4] There were two tentative race dates on the initial calendar; Chihuahua on 12 April and Panama on 13 September.

On 7 March, Chihuahua was dropped for undisclosed reasons, and replaced with a third date in Puebla on the same weekend.[5] Subsequently, the round at Panama was confirmed on 8 April, with the race name being the "Nations Panama City 200".[6]

On 9 May, the race at Autódromo Monterrey was moved from 9 August to 5 July. As a result, the second date at Autodromo Miguel E. Abed would now be held on 20 July, replacing a round that had been scheduled in Mexico City.[7] The empty date on the 9/10 August was subsequently given to San Luis Potosí, which would be the first race of the Playoffs.

2025 NASCAR Challenge Series

[edit]

The 2025 NASCAR Challenge Series is the ninth season of the NASCAR Challenge Series, a regional stock car racing series sanctioned by NASCAR in Mexico. It began with a race at the Super Óvalo Potosino on 2 March, and will conclude with a race at the Autódromo Miguel E. Abed on 9 November. The series is intended for young drivers, and acts as the second-tier series to the NASCAR Mexico Series.

Unlike most other second tier series in motorsport, NASCAR Challenge drivers race alongside NASCAR Mexico drivers in the same event.

The champion from 2024 was Eloy Sebastián, who raced full-time for the NASCAR Mexico Series in 2025.
