This year will also mark the highly anticipated return of the Honda\u00a0Indy, one of Canada\u2019s most iconic and action-packed motorsport weekends, back on the calendar<br \/>for the first time since 2023. With a competitive field that continues to blend new talents, rising\u00a0stars and seasoned veterans, the series builds on the momentum of last season, which saw seven\u00a0different drivers reach Victory Lane.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe 2026 schedule reflects our continued commitment to offering a balanced and competitive season for our teams and our fans,\u201d said Alan Labrosse, General Manager of the NASCAR Canada Series. \u201cWith a variety of track types and strategic event spacing, we believe this calendar<br \/>provides a strong foundation for both sporting and operational success.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 2026 season includes three doubleheaders at Autodrome Chaudi\u00e8re, Autodrome\u00a0Montmagny and Edmonton International Raceway, with events spanning across Qu\u00e9bec, Ontario,\u00a0Nova Scotia and Alberta. The calendar features five oval tracks, along with three road course<br \/>venues, including a return to Calabogie Motorsports Park following a successful first appearance\u00a0last year.<\/p>\n<p>The schedule also features two street circuits. The Grand Prix de Trois-Rivi\u00e8res (GP3R), a pillar\u00a0of Canadian motorsport tradition, once again delivers its unmistakable urban challenge. The\u00a0Honda Indy returns to the calendar as well, now hosted in Markham, reviving one of Canada\u2019s<br \/>most celebrated motorsport weekends.<\/p>\n<p>Canadian Tire Motorsport Park will once again host both the season opener and the final road\u00a0course event. The championship finale is scheduled for September 12 at Delaware Speedway in\u00a0Ontario.<\/p>\n<p>2026 NASCAR Canada Schedule<br \/>May 16-17: Canadian Tire Motorsport Park (ON)<br \/>June 6: Autodrome Chaudi\u00e8re (QC) *Double header<br \/>June 27: Riverside International Speedway (NS)<br \/>July 4: Autodrome Montmagny (QC) *Double header<br \/>July 18\u201319: Calabogie Motorsports Park (ON)<br \/>July 25: Edmonton International Raceway (AB) *Double header<br \/>August 8-9: Grand Prix de Trois-Rivi\u00e8res (QC)<br \/>August 14-15: Ontario Honda Dealers Indy at Markham (ON)<br \/>August 29: Complexe ICAR (QC)<br \/>September 5-6: Canadian Tire Motorsport Park (ON)<br \/>September 12: Delaware Speedway (ON)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"(Daytona Beach, Florida) &#8211; December 19, 2025 &#8211; NASCAR Canada is thrilled to unveil its 2026\u00a0season schedule, which&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":386856,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[446],"tags":[49,48,634,82],"class_list":["post-386855","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nascar","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nascar","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/386855","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=386855"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/386855\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/386856"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=386855"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=386855"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=386855"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
