Bowman-Gray Stadium - Cup Series Race Winners

Bowman Gray Stadium is a multi-use sports facility in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The complex includes a 0.250 mi (0.402 km) paved oval short track, constructed in 1938 that has hosted NASCAR-sanctioned events. Bowman Gray Stadium is owned by the city of Winston-Salem and operated by both NASCAR and Winston-Salem State University for events. Auto racing made its first appearance in 1939 for a short period of time. It was revived in 1947 when the dirt track was paved. Two years later, businessmen Bill France Sr. and Alvin Hawkins took over the stadium's racing promotions under the sanctioning body of NASCAR, with racing becoming a mainstay after NASCAR's rise in popularity. Over the following decades, the stadium's condition declined steadily. In 1990s and 2000s, a series of renovations were made to the stadium, improving its amenities and condition. In the 2020s, further renovations to the stadium were made, leading to the return of the NASCAR Cup Series after over 50 years of absence.
