DAYTONA BEACH, FL – Last season, the NASCAR Pinty’s Series ran an abbreviated six-race, three-event schedule under the “Pinty’s Fan Cave Challenge” banner. For 2021, the NASCAR Pinty’s Series returns with a full 12-race slate of events and will once again crown a season-long champion.
The return to a full schedule features a dozen points races at eight different tracks, culminating with the championship race at Jukasa Motor Speedway on Saturday, September 25. Jukasa has hosted the season finale every year since its return to the schedule in 2017.
“Our team has worked hard to put together a full schedule that will showcase the exciting, door-to-door racing Pinty’s Series fans have come to expect,” said Chad Seigler, NASCAR Vice President, International Business Development. “Out of an abundance of caution, we are focusing on stand-alone events, especially as we kick off the season. Though we are unsure of when we can welcome fans back to the race track, we will continue to work with local and provincial officials to put on as safe an event as possible. The health and safety of our competitors, officials and fans are our top priority.”
Other highlights include:
• The series’ long-awaited debut on dirt. Ohsweken Speedway will host its first Pinty’s Series race on Tuesday, August 17 after being featured on the initial 2020 schedule.
• A Quebec swing in late August featuring three races at two tracks in two days. Circuit ICAR will host its first series race since 2017 on Saturday, August 28 followed by twin events at Autodrome Chaudière on Sunday, August 29.
• The Pinty’s Series will again serve as the opening act for the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park (CTMP) with two races on Sunday, September 5.
• The traditional western Canadian swing for the NASCAR Pinty’s Series will not happen in 2021.
• The series’ long-running appearance as part of the Toronto IndyCar event is also not included in the NPS schedule for this season.
All races will air on TSN and RDS. Start times and complete broadcast schedules will be released at a later date.
