CONCORD, N.C. -- Wednesday afternoon, the stage lengths of each race in the 2018 NASCAR Cup Series season were announced.
This year, the stage lengths will match those from the 2017 campaign with the exception of the playoff race at Charlotte Motor Speedway -- the race and stage lengths for that event will be announced a later date.
“Last year’s debut of the race format was a strong one," said Scott Miller, NASCAR senior vice president of competition, "and we look forward to building on that foundation in 2018, starting with Speedweeks at Daytona."
