NASCAR purse for Cup Series race at Sonoma in June 2026

NASCAR is gearing up for the 20th race weekend of the 2026 season at Sonoma Raceway, and the Cup Series is bound to put on a show. In 2025, Shane van Gisbergen beat Chase Briscoe for his third win of the year. Now, the sport will head to Sonoma with a substantial amount of money on the line.

The purse for the Cup Series race at Sonoma 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 Sonoma sat at $11,055,250, which is roughly a $180,000 increase.

It will be fascinating to see which NASCAR driver will earn the most money at Sonoma this weekend. Van Gisbergen is looking to go back-to-back in the race at Sonoma, but Briscoe and Chase Elliott had good cars in 2025. Sonoma always puts on a show, and this weekend should be no different.
