The 2023 NASCAR schedules are out.

The story, being broke by Jordan Bianchi of The Athletic,  is live and the schedule has a few new wrinkles.

As previously reported, NASCAR will visit Chicago for its first ever street race taking the 4th of July date from Road America, which is not on the Cup Series schedule.

North Wilkesboro Speedway will host the series’ annual All-Star Race the week before the Coca Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Among other changes to the NASCAR Cup Series schedule, Richmond will not host a Saturday night race – each of its dates will see the action on Sunday afternoon.

Texas Motor Speedway will also host only one race for the first time since 2004.

Iowa Speedway and Knoxville Raceway will not host any of the three tours, making this the first year (aside from 2020) that the state of Iowa hasn’t seen any NASCAR premier tour race inside its borders since 2009.

The complete schedules can be seen below:
