Shane van Gisbergen completed a sweep on the Chicago Street Course this past weekend, winning both the Xfinity Series and NASCAR Cup Series races on the tricky downtown circuit.

Whether the Chicago Street Race (the Loop 110 Xfinity race and Grant Park 165 Cup race) returns in 2026 is up in the air. The three-year contract has two option years, and it's not yet decided if those will be exercised.

Greenberg wrote a story on Sunday evening for the Chicago Sun-Times criticizing NASCAR and the street race, saying NASCAR has a way of "... t aking up the entire best part of downtown, forcing us to take weird, annoying alternate routes just to avoid you."
