The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series schedule is made up of 23 tracks. 13 of these tracks hold multiple events each year. Do they all deserve more than one Sprint Cup Series race each year?

NASCAR is different from other forms of motor sports in they hold multiple races per year at the same facilities. Currently there are 13 racetracks on the Sprint Cup tour that host multiple races.

That being said not every track deserves more than one race. In this, part one, we review six of NASCAR’s current tracks to see if they deserve two races. In the coming weeks we’ll review the final seven tracks and provide replacements for the tracks found undeserving of multiple races.
