2025 Coke Zero Sugar 400
The 2025 Coke Zero Sugar 400 was a NASCAR Cup Series race held on August 23, 2025, at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida on the 2.5-mile (4.0 km) superspeedway. It was the 26th race of the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season, and last race of the regular season.
Ryan Blaney won the race. Daniel Suárez finished 2nd, and Justin Haley finished 3rd. Cole Custer and Erik Jones rounded out the top five, and Kyle Larson, Chris Buescher, Ty Gibbs, Josh Berry, and Chase Elliott rounded out the top ten.
The race was held at Daytona International Speedway, a race track located in Daytona Beach, Florida, United States. Since opening in 1959, the track is the home of the Daytona 500, the most prestigious race in NASCAR. In addition to NASCAR, the track also hosts races of ARCA, AMA Superbike, USCC, SCCA, and Motocross. It features multiple layouts including the primary 2.5 miles (4.0 km) high speed tri-oval, a 3.56 miles (5.73 km) sports car course, a 2.95 miles (4.75 km) motorcycle course, and a .25 miles (0.40 km) karting and motorcycle flat-track. The track's 180-acre (73 ha) infield includes the 29-acre (12 ha) Lake Lloyd, which has hosted powerboat racing. The speedway is owned and operated by International Speedway Corporation.
The track was built in 1959 by NASCAR founder William "Bill" France, Sr. to host racing held at the former Daytona Beach Road Course. His banked design permitted higher speeds and gave fans a better view of the cars. Lights were installed around the track in 1998 and today, it is the third-largest single lit outdoor sports facility. The speedway has been renovated three times, with the infield renovated in 2004 and the track repaved twice — in 1978 and in 2010. On January 22, 2013, the track unveiled artist depictions of a renovated speedway. On July 5 of that year, ground was broken for a project that would remove the backstretch seating and completely redevelop the frontstretch seating. The renovation to the speedway is being worked on by Rossetti Architects. The project, named "Daytona Rising", was completed in January 2016, and it cost US $400 million, placing emphasis on improving fan experience with five expanded and redesigned fan entrances (called "injectors") as well as wider and more comfortable seating with more restrooms and concession stands. After the renovations, the track's grandstands include 101,000 permanent seats with the ability to increase permanent seating to 125,000. The project was completed before the start of Speedweeks.
Qualifying for the race was cancelled due to inclement weather. Ryan Blaney was awarded the pole for the race as a result of NASCAR's pandemic formula with a score of 3.600..
