NASCAR San Diego 2026 weekend schedule: Start time, TV info, odds

NASCAR will race on an active military base for the first time this weekend at Naval Base Coronado, San Diego featuring all three national series.

The event takes place on a temporary 3.4-mile street circuit featuring 16 turns at Naval Air Station North Island in Coronado making it the longest venue of any on the 2026 schedule.

The full weekend schedule delivers an unprecedented racing experience combining high-octane thrills with stunning oceanfront views while celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States Navy.

Fans can expect the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Navy 250 (12/24/50) on Friday evening, the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series United Rentals Driven to Serve 250 (15/30/60) on Saturday, and the headline NASCAR Cup Series Anduril 250 Race the Base (20/40/75) on Sunday.

Early race odds and favorites center around three primary contenders leading the conversation before the event begins.

Denny Hamlin comes in red hot after a recent run of hat-trick wins at Nashville, Michigan, and Pocono, establishing himself as arguably the most complete team in the garage with a massively reduced gap to points leader Tyler Reddick.

Reddick holds the best start to the season with three consecutive wins at Daytona, Atlanta, and COTA, currently leading the Cup Series standings with 704 points, just 19 points ahead of Hamlin.

Shane van Gisbergen attracts heavy attention thanks to his road-course and street-racing pedigree, including a legendary charge at Watkins Glen where he chased down the leader from 29 seconds back in just 18 laps, making him a favourite for street course competition.
