Dover Motor Speedway will begin three consecutive races with exclusively left turns — the tracks where van Gisbergen has struggled as a Cup rookie. The three-time Supercars champion has three victories in 2025 at Sonoma, Chicago and Mexico City but a best finish of 14th (in the Coca-Cola 600) on an oval.

23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports will not have NASCAR Cup Series charter status for at least the next two races at Dover and Indianapolis as the federal judge overseeing the antitrust lawsuit and countersuit did not grant the teams’ request for a temporary restraining order.
