For the second consecutive year, the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series will not visit Canadian Tire Motorsport Park thanks to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
NASCAR blamed “logistical challenges” as the ultimate cause for the cancellation.
In its place, the second Truck Series Playoff race will be Darlington on September 5th at 1:30 p.m. EST, just a handful of hours before the Cup race scheduled for later that evening. The race will be broadcasted on FOX Sports 1.
Excited to share that our @CookOut #Southern500 race day expands to a doubleheader with an added @NASCAR_Trucks race!

This means that the Playoffs for the Truck Series will no longer feature a road course element for 2021. The Truck Series will not visit Charlotte Roval, unlike the Xfinity and Cup Series.
The NASCAR Xfinity Series will race on September 4th at 3:30 p.m. EST on NBCSN, with fans getting three races in two days.
