NASCAR on Amazon Prime is the branding used for broadcasts of NASCAR races on Amazon Prime Video, which will broadcast five NASCAR Cup Series races per season from 2025 to 2031 as well as all practice and qualifying in the first half of those seven Cup Series seasons except for the Clash, Daytona 500, and All-Star Race.
History
On November 29, 2023, NASCAR announced that Amazon would gain the broadcast rights to five Cup Series races on their Prime Video subscription video on-demand streaming service starting in the next TV contract which would begin in 2025 that runs through 2031. In addition, they gained the broadcast rights for all practice and qualifying sessions in the first half of the Cup Series season with the exception of the Busch Light Clash, the Daytona 500, and the All-Star Race which NASCAR on Fox would keep. In addition, it was announced that NASCAR was working with Amazon Prime Video on creating a documentary on their Garage 56 entry in the 2023 24 Hours of Le Mans.[1]
On February 29, 2024, The Athletic reported that Dale Earnhardt Jr., whose contract with NASCAR on NBC expired after the 2023 season, would reportedly be leaving NBC for Amazon and TNT's new NASCAR coverage in the next TV contract that starts in 2025.[2] On May 7, it was officially announced that Dale Jr. would make the move from NBC to Amazon and TNT in 2025, presumably continuing as a color commentator.[3]
On May 14, 2024, NASCAR announced that the first of Amazon's five races would be the Coca-Cola 600.[4] It was also announced that day that Amazon would make a four-part documentary about Dale Earnhardt for Prime Video that would be released sometime in 2025.[5]
