NASCAR Tightens Rookie Eligibility Rules | Nascar News
Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description
NASCAR’s Rookie of the Year eligibility is getting stricter—drivers now face hard caps on prior starts to qualify: 12 in Cup, 10 in Xfinity, and 8 in Trucks. Teams must actively apply, ending the old case-by-case chaos. Corey Heim, with 15 Cup starts, is now ineligible—Connor Zilisch is the only contender this year. The move aims to simplify the process and preserve the rookie title’s prestige.
