The 2022 NASCAR Cup Series will be the 74th season for NASCAR professional stock car racing in the United States and the 51st season for the modern era Cup Series. The season will start at Daytona International Speedway with the Busch Clash. That race will be followed by the Bluegreen Vacations Duel qualifying races, and the 64th running of the Daytona 500, the first points race of the season.
