NASCAR is gearing up for the 27th race weekend of the 2026 season at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, and the Cup Series is bound to put on a show. In 2025, Ryan Blaney beat Josh Berry for his third win of the year. Now, the sport will head to New Hampshire with a substantial amount of money on the line.
The purse for the Cup Series race at New Hampshire will be $11,233,037 on Sunday afternoon. NASCAR doesn't release the earnings for the winning driver anymore, meaning it's impossible to tell how much of the $11,233,037 will go toward the team in victory lane. Last year, the purse for New Hampshire sat at $9,797,935, which is a $1,435,102 increase.
It will be fascinating to see which NASCAR driver will earn the most money at New Hampshire this weekend.
Blaney is looking to go back-to-back in the race at New Hampshire, but Berry and William Byron had good cars in 2025. New Hampshire always puts on a show, and this weekend should be no different.
