Danica Patrick and Sam Hornish Jr. battle each other at Daytona

Fans of NASCAR’s second-tier division, known for a final season as the Xfinity Series, are calling for nostalgia. 

“Bring back the Busch Series!” Talkin’ NASCAR posted on X (Twitter). 

The proposal appears to be gaining momentum. 

A subsidiary of Comcast, Xfinity served as the primary sponsor for the past 11 seasons. The telecommuncations company will remain a premier partner beyond this season, but NASCAR needs to find a new nameplate. 

How about an old one? 

Re-emerging as a major sponsor in the past half-decade, Anheuser-Busch has yet to squash the growing number of social media posts dedicated to the circuit recycling the NASCAR Busch Series. 

Among the other monikers the grand national series has employed, like Nationwide, the beer company remains fan favorite.
