For every NASCAR Cup Series driver, winning a championship is the ultimate goal. But when it comes to individual races, four events stand above the rest.
Known collectively as NASCAR's Crown Jewel races, these iconic events carry a level of prestige that few victories can match. They combine decades of history, unique traditions, massive crowds, and some of the toughest challenges on the schedule. A win in any one of them can define a driver's career. Winning all four places them among NASCAR's all-time greats.
While NASCAR has never formally codified the term in its rulebook, today's Crown Jewel races are widely recognized as the Daytona 500, Coca-Cola 600, Southern 500, and Brickyard 400.
Here's everything fans need to know about the sport's biggest events.
Much like golf's four majors or tennis' Grand Slam tournaments, NASCAR's Crown Jewel races are considered the premier events on the Cup Series calendar.
