HighPoint.com 400
The HighPoint.com 400 is a NASCAR Cup Series stock car race held at the Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, Pennsylvania. In 2022, it became the only Cup Series race at the track after its other Cup Series race, the Pocono Organics CBD 325, was removed from the Cup Series schedule in favor of a race at World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway. The race has been held sometime in mid-to-late July or early August each year except for when it was held in September, 1974 when it was held in April, and 2020 and 2021 when it was held in June as a doubleheader with the other Cup Series race at Pocono. Denny Hamlin is the defending winner of the event.
