NASCAR’s Big Stars Left in the Dust as Underdog Rises to Million-Dollar Fame

The NASCAR world is ablaze with controversy as the organization continues to push forward lesser-known personalities while snubbing its biggest champions. This week, the spotlight is on an underdog driver, leaving legends like Kevin Harvick and Kyle Larson in the shadows.

Kevin Harvick, a NASCAR Cup Series champion with over 60 career wins, found himself overlooked at a Carolina Panthers game when a photo featuring him in the background went viral with the focus on Panthers safety Sam Franklin Jr.’s handshake with Harvick’s son, Keelan. The incident sparked outrage among fans who believe that NASCAR’s legends deserve more recognition at mainstream events.

Similarly, Kyle Larson, the reigning 2021 Cup Series champion, attended WrestleMania 41 without receiving any acknowledgment from WWE despite his significant achievements in NASCAR. This snub highlights the challenges NASCAR faces in promoting its top drivers to broader audiences.

On the contrary, NASCAR has been actively promoting underdog drivers like Chase Briscoe, who recently secured a playoff spot by winning the final race of the 2024 regular season at Darlington. Despite not commanding the same level of public appeal as Harvick or Larson, Briscoe made an appearance on WWE Raw in Las Vegas to promote the second season of NASCAR: Full Speed. The promotion is part of NASCAR’s Driver Ambassador Program, incentivizing drivers to participate in promotional activities to increase the sport’s reach.

As NASCAR aims for international expansion with plans to host its first international Cup Series points race in Mexico City in 2025, the organization faces a decline in domestic viewership. To address this, NASCAR has secured a $7.7 billion media rights deal to attract younger audiences through streaming platforms like Amazon Prime and TNT Sports. However, the push for international races has raised concerns among traditional fans who fear the loss of historic tracks and the sport’s heritage.

The ongoing debate over promoting emerging talents over established champions begs the question of NASCAR’s marketing strategy and its impact on the sport’s broader appeal. As the organization navigates through challenges both domestically and internationally, the future trajectory of America’s premier stock car racing series hangs in the balance.
