Report: NASCAR deep in talks to bring street race to San Diego

NASCAR and officials in the San Diego area are working toward an agreement to return the Cup Series to Southern California, The Athletic reported Wednesday.
According to the report, the two sides are finalizing details on a street-course race to be held in the area. An announcement is tentatively expected in July.
Both NASCAR and Sports San Diego, the area's sports tourism arm, declined to make a statement to The Athletic.
NASCAR has not held a non-exhibition race in Southern California since 2023 when the speedway in Fontana closed.
A street race in San Diego could offer a chance to drive with the Pacific Ocean in the backdrop, although The Athletic reported an exact location for the race has not been finalized.
NASCAR already has gotten off the oval, with a street race held in downtown Chicago since 2023. The Grant Park 165, as it is called on the 2025 schedule, will be run in Chicago on July 6.
