AdventHealth 400 2025's history

AdventHealth 400 became a part of the NASCAR Cup Series for first time in 2011. It was a part of the June schedule of the NASCAR calendar. Brad Keselowski won the race ahead of Dale Earnhardt Jr. by saving fuel. Due to the reconfiguration of the Kansas Speedway, the race was moved to April. The race was known as STP 400 from 2011 to 2013 due to sponsorship from STP. In 2024, the race was extended due to overtime finish. The AdventHealth 400 was won by Kyle Larson for Hendrick Motorsports.

The 2024 AdventHealth 400 came into spotlight due to late race action involving Larson and Chris Buescher. A late race pileup led to significant changes in the driver positions and the final standings. Buescher and Larson battled it out to the finish line. At first, it felt like Buescher took the win but the difference was not visible to the naked eye. However, review footage showed that Kyle Larson won the race by mere 0.001 seconds. FOX states that the margin of victory set a NASCAR record for the closest finish in Cup Series making the AdventHealth 400 a memorable race.
