From Memorial Day weekend through Independence Day weekend, the NASCAR industry will honor United States Armed Forces heroes and their families as part of NASCAR Salutes Refreshed by Coca-Cola. The initiative returns with the 600 Miles of Remembrance during Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway as Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race cars carry the name of a fallen service member on the windshield during the race in honor of those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Coca-Cola returns as the presenting sponsor of the event and will join the USA to honor military spouses and their families across the different military branches at Pocono Raceway and Michigan International Speedway. Then at Sonoma Raceway and Chicagoland Speedway, an at-track experience with Troops to the Track Hosted by Coca-Cola will showcase how the industry and its partners support military members in transition to civilian life.

“NASCAR has always taken immense pride in honoring the military men and women who’ve bravely served our nation,” said Steve Phelps, NASCAR president. “Each year, NASCAR Salutes unites our industry to celebrate these heroes and their families and recognize them for the sacrifices made to preserve our freedoms.”
