2019 NASCAR Panasonic Cup Series (Johnsonverse)

The 2019 NASCAR Panasonic Cup Series will be the 71st season of professional stock car racing in the United States, and the 48th modern-era NASCAR Cup series season. The season will begin at Road America with the Harley-Davidson 250, followed by Daytona International Speedway with the Busch Clash, the Can-Am Duel qualifying races and the 61st running of the Daytona 500. The season will end with the Ford EcoBoost 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway on November 17, 2019.

It will be the fifth season of the current 10-year television contract with Fox Sports, NBC Sports, and WBC Sports, and the fourth of a five-year race sanctioning agreement with all tracks.

It is scheduled to be the first season in which the Cup Series has raced at Lucas Oil Speedway (replacing the August Bristol race), Nazareth Speedway (falling on the former Father's Day off-weekend), The Milwaukee Mile (replacing the September Richmond race), Mid-Ohio Sports Car Complex (replacing the October Dover race), and Brands Hatch in Kent, England (falling on the former August off-weekend), marking the first international points-paying Cup Series race since 1958. The Brands Hatch and Nazareth races, which are occupying two former off-weeks, will be broadcast by WBC, while the remainder will remain on NBC.

In addition, Chrysler enter the Maserati GranTurismo, along with Jaguar (with the XE), Hyundai (with the Aslan), Kia (with the Optima), Aston Martin (with the Vanquish Volante), and Porsche (with the Boxster).
