The Cup Series is where it’s at, but you can watch the next wave of hopefuls in the XFINITY Series all season long with our full rundown of the 2018 schedule.

Not to be outdone by its bigger, more famous sibling, the NASCAR XFINITY Series is ready to roar into its 2018 campaign as well. Defending champion William Byron is gone, having moved up to take a spot at Hendrick Motorsports, so the chase for the title is wide open — though the favorite could be Truck Series champ Christopher Bell.

The Cup Series stars will make cameo appearances too, including Kyle Busch, who continues to chase history as he pursues 100 XFINITY Series races. He won’t accomplish that feat this year no matter how well he does in each start, though, thanks to a rule that limits how often experienced top circuit drivers can make XFINITY Series starts.

The idea is to balance the drawing power of drivers like Busch with chances for the XFINITY regulars to win. Similarly, the schedule itself shows a nice mix of tracks, including a very interesting summer stretch where there are three road course races in four weeks.

You’ll also find XFINITY Series races on both Fridays and Saturdays and on FS1, FOX, NBCSN and NBC, so be sure to keep this page bookmarked during the season.
