The NASCAR Cup Series race weekend at Pocono Raceway begins on June 21 with qualifying for The Great American Getaway 400. The three-turn Tricky Triangle is a unique track on the schedule, but rare is the surprise winner at Pocono over the years. Ryan Blaney is the defending race winner, while Denny Hamlin has a win and a runner-up finish at the track over the last two years. With a win last week at Mexico City, Shane van Gisbergen can now drive without the stress of worrying about the playoffs.

The NASCAR Cup Series begins the race weekend at Pocono Raceway with practice and qualifying for The Great American Getaway 400 on June 21. Shane van Gisbergen's victory in Mexico City changed the dynamics of the summer playoff chase, though now teams near the bubble can now operate with SVG in the playoffs instead of any unknowns. 10 races remain in the regular season, and 10 drivers have won races to secure a playoff berth so far.

The NASCAR Xfinity Series continues on in the 2025 season with the Explore the Pocono Mountains 250 on June 21 at Pocono Raceway. The unique nature of Pocono will test speed and handling, as well as fuel strategy. Last week, Daniel Suarez won in his home country in one of the season's top moments regardless of series. Still, six playoff-eligible drivers have won races with 10 regular-season races to go this summer.
