    • Segment Prizes

      There are 3 segment prizes available. To win, earn the most points out of the overall field of players during each segment.
      NOTE: Only winning your league may not be enough. To check if you won the overall segment, go to Standings > Overall > Segment.

    • Grand Prize:

      Win your league in segment 1 or segment 2 to be eligible for the ‘Chase for the Cup’ competition. If you qualify for the ‘Chase for the Cup’ in segment 3, beat the best players in the game to win a $2,500 prize.

      • Tips

    • League managers: For your league to be eligible for the ‘Chase for the Cup’ competition, your league must have 8 entries, so recruit your friends! Leagues that aren’t filled will be collapsed 5 minutes prior to the official TV start time of each race throughout the season.

      Managing your team:

      To win, manage a team of 5 drivers against a $100 dollar salary cap while picking drivers with the best chance at scoring the most points each week. Keep your team up to date because each driver on your team that doesn’t start the race will earn a -25 point penalty!

    • Segments:

      • Segment 1: February 26 – May 12 (11 Races, Daytona to Darlington)
      • Segment 2: May 27 – September 8 (15 Races, Charlotte to Richmond II)
      • Segment 3: September 16 – November 18 (Chase for the Cup! 10 Races, Chicago to Homestead)

    • If you win your league in segment 1 or segment 2, you qualify for the Chase for the Cup in segment 3, competing against the game’s best in the final 10 races of the season.

    • Scoring

    • NASCAR Fantasy Live is the first game of its kind to score your team of Sprint Cup drivers based on several statistical categories instead of just how they finish each race.

      Drivers are scored across 5 statistical categories:

      • Finish Position: 43 point scale – 1st place gets 43 points, 2nd place gets 42 points and so on, with 43rd place earning 1 point
      • Place Differential: Starting position (based on qualifying order) minus finish position. +/- 1 point for each driver’s place differential. Example: If Jimmie Johnson qualified 7th but finished 1st, his place differential would be +6, and he would earn 6 points. If Jeff Gordon qualified 6th and finished 10th, his place differential would be -4, earning him -4 points.
      • Pit Road: Points are gained/lost by Drivers on a lead lap who pit under caution during the Race. Pit Road points accumulate based on how many positions the lead-lap drivers gain or lose during a yellow flag pit stop. Pit Road points are calculated by adding up all positions gained or lost during pit stops under yellow for lead-lap Drivers during the Race. Points are earned or lost on a 1:1 ration. For example, if Driver A gained 5 positions on pit stop 1 but lost 2 positions on pit stop 2, his Pit Road +/- score would be +3 points
      • Laps Led: Total number of laps led divided by 2. Example: If Carl Edwards lead 65 laps, he would earn 32.5 points.
      • Fastest Laps: Total number of fastest laps divided by 2. Example: If Denny Hamlin recorded 50 fastest laps, he would earn 25 points.
      • Inactive Driver Penalty: For each driver on your team that isn’t active in the Race, that driver earn’s -25 points.
