NASCAR heads back to wine country this weekend, trading superspeedways for serpentine roads as the Cup Series rolls into Sonoma Raceway for Round 20 of the 2025 season. With just a handful of races left before the playoff picture comes into focus, the stakes are climbing as fast as the California hills.

But it’s not just championship points on the line—there’s also a golden carrot dangling ahead in the form of NASCAR’s In-Season Tournament. Sunday marks the third round of the $1 million challenge, and only four of the remaining eight drivers will survive Sonoma’s 12-turn test to fight another day at Dover next week.

The head-to-head brackets are locked and loaded. Ty Dillon squares off against Alex Bowman, setting up a David-versus-Goliath duel against the Hendrick Motorsports standout. Meanwhile, it’s teammate vs. teammate as Legacy Motor Club drivers John Hunter Nemechek and Erik Jones battle for bragging rights.

Ryan Preece and Tyler Reddick are set to lock horns in what might be the fiercest matchup of the bunch, while Ty Gibbs and Zane Smith will bring the curtain down on the bracket with a clash of rising stars.
