Prime Video returns as a primary sponsor for Chase Elliott's No. 9 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet in three NASCAR Cup Series races in 2026.
Prime Video will make its debut on the No. 9 Chevrolet at Talladega Superspeedway on April 26. The Prime Video entry will also race at Texas Motor Speedway on May 3 and in the NASCAR All-Star Race at Dover Motor Speedway on May 17.
Prime Video first sponsored Elliott in 2025 for races at Talladega and Kansas Speedway. Like last year, the Prime Video races lead into the streaming service's five-race stretch of NASCAR Cup Series broadcasts.
The Prime Video broadcast slate again opens with the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, scheduled for May 24. The Prime broadcast schedule also includes the Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway on May 31, the FireKeepers Casino 400 at Michigan International Speedway on June 7 and the NASCAR Cup Series race at Pocono Raceway on June 14.
The Prime broadcast schedule concludes with the Anduril 250 during NASCAR San Diego Weekend on June 21. The event brings all three of NASCAR's National Series to Naval Base Coronado for a unique event, utilizing a 16-turn, 3.4-mile street circuit.
Elliott, a 21-time race winner in the NASCAR Cup Series, won the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series championship. He was named the Cup Series' Most Popular Driver for 2025, his eighth consecutive year winning the award.
The 30-year-old from Dawsonville, Georgia won two races during the 2025 Cup Series season, recording 11 top-fives and 19 top-10s. He finished eighth in the final NASCAR Cup Series championship standings.
