Question: There are many requirements for driving. Which common one isn’t required for NASCAR Cup drivers before they race?
Answer: To compete at the Cup Series level, drivers must meet specific prerequisites. Notably, a regular state-issued driver’s license is not required; instead, a NASCAR-specific license is necessary. Drivers typically obtain NASCAR licenses at lower levels of competition before advancing to the Cup level. The cost of these licenses is approximately $2,000, and they must be renewed each year.
