NASCAR Chicago Street Race Insights
The 2025 Grant Park 165 is scheduled for Sunday, with an exciting subplot as the NASCAR Cup Series races through the streets of Chicago. Among the competitors is Ty Dillon, the last seed in the tournament, who stunned top seed Denny Hamlin in the previous week’s race and will take on No. 17 seed Brad Keselowski. The best finishing driver in this matchup will progress in the tournament for a chance to win a $1 million prize.
Shane van Gisbergen, who previously triumphed in the 2023 race, enters as the +150 favorite after a road course victory in Mexico City last month. The race will begin at 2 p.m. ET, covering 75 laps on the 2.2-mile layout.
