NORTH WILKESBORO, N.C. -- After prevailing in a battle for the lead with the defending NASCAR Cup Series champion, Christopher Bell drove away from Joey Logano to win the 2025 NASCAR All-Star Race at North Wilkesboro Speedway and $1 million. Bell's victory is his first in NASCAR's All-Star Race in his fifth try.

In its third edition as host of the $1 million exhibition event, North Wilkesboro Speedway produced All-Star Race records for lead changes (18) and green-flag passes for the lead (59) as its remarkable rebirth continued from a dilapidated and rotting hulk just three years ago.

The NC racetrack recorded a third sellout in as many years. It saw its best racing to date, too. Is the venue ready to take the next step?
