Ty Gibbs, the 2022 Xfinity Series champion.
Noah Gragson finished second behind Gibbs in the championship.
Justin Allgaier finished third in the championship.
Josh Berry finished fourth in the championship.
A. J. Allmendinger won the regular season championship, but finished fifth in the playoffs.
Austin Hill, the 2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series Rookie of the Year.
Chevrolet won the Xfinity Series manufacturers' championship with 1274 points and 24 wins.

The 2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series was the 41st season of the NASCAR Xfinity Series, a stock car racing series sanctioned by NASCAR in the United States. The season started with the Beef. It's What's for Dinner. 300 on February 19 at Daytona International Speedway and ended with the NASCAR Xfinity Series Championship Race on November 5 at Phoenix Raceway.

Daniel Hemric entered the season as the defending champion and attempted to become the second driver in series history to win back-to-back championships driving for two different teams. (The first was Tyler Reddick in 2018 and 2019, who drove for JR Motorsports and Richard Childress Racing in those years respectively.) Hemric drove the No. 18 car for Joe Gibbs Racing in 2021, but moved to the No. 11 car for Kaulig Racing in 2022. Hemric once again made the Playoffs but was eliminated after the Round of 12.

The Xfinity Series logo also changed from red to purple in 2022 to reflect a similar change in the logo of series title sponsor Xfinity.[1]

Following the 2022 Food City 300 at Bristol, A. J. Allmendinger of Kaulig Racing clinched the regular season championship.[2] After the 2022 Alsco Uniforms 302 at Las Vegas, Chevrolet won the manufacturers' championship.[3] Ty Gibbs won the 2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series Championship, while Joe Gibbs Racing won its fourth championship. It was also JGR's second NXS Championship in a row. Austin Hill of Richard Childress Racing won the 2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series Rookie of the Year honors.[4]

Changes

Teams

  • On August 6, 2021, Shane Lee tweeted that he got the equipment from the closed H2 Motorsports team that he drove for in 2019 and was contemplating whether to use it and start his own team or sell the equipment.[122] On November 18, Joey Gase announced that he would start his own team, Joey Gase Racing, fielding the No. 35 Ford/Toyota full-time in 2022 with himself and other drivers sharing the ride. The Toyotas that the team will run were the ones owned by Lee that were last used by H2M. As part of the deal to sell the equipment to Gase, Lee will drive select races in Gase's No. 35.[93] On December 30, it was announced that Patrick Emerling (who drove part-time for Our Motorsports in 2020 and 2021) would join the team as a driver and a co-owner, and as a result, the team was renamed Emerling-Gase Motorsports, and that the team would also field a second part-time car.[90]
  • On August 21, 2021, it was announced that NFL Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith and driver Jesse Iwuji would be starting an Xfinity Series team, Jesse Iwuji Motorsports, with Iwuji running the full season and for Rookie of the Year.[38] On February 7, 2022, it was announced that the team would run Chevrolets and share a shop with JD Motorsports, which had extra space available as they reduced from 4 full-time cars to 2 for 2022. The team chose the No. 34 in honor of fellow African American driver Wendell Scott after Team Penske, who cut back to a part-time Xfinity car in 2022, declined to give the team their first choice of car number, the No. 22, Smith's number when he played for the Dallas Cowboys.[123][124]
  • On August 30, 2021, it was announced that Caesar Bacarella, who has driven part-time in the series for B. J. McLeod Motorsports and DGM Racing since 2017, would be joining Martins Motorsports as a driver/co-owner and the team would be renamed Alpha Prime Racing (Alpha Prime is a company he owns). In addition to Bacarella, Tommy Joe Martins, Rajah Caruth, and potentially additional drivers will share the team's No. 44 car for the full season.[5] On January 6, 2022, Alpha Prime Racing announced it will field two full-time teams in 2022, with Sage Karam driving the No. 45 for four races.[125]
  • When the Jayski's Silly Season Site 2022 Xfinity Series team/driver chart was released, it was revealed that Big Machine Racing, which fields the No. 48 car for Jade Buford (who will return to the team in 2022) may form an alliance with a larger NASCAR Xfinity Series team.[126] On October 7, 2021, BMRT announced that they would partner with Richard Childress Racing in 2022.[16]
  • Miles Thomas Motorsports will debut in 2022. The team will compete part-time in both the Xfinity Series and ARCA Menards Series with Jason Miles, who is also a co-owner of the team. Miles competed part-time in ARCA for Fast Track Racing in 2019 and 2021. Ford will be their manufacturer. The team has yet to announce their car number, sponsors, and crew chief.[127]
  • On October 14, 2021, Bob Pockrass from Fox tweeted that Joe Gibbs Racing could downsize from four full-time cars to three in 2022. One of the cars would continue to be for a rotation of drivers like the No. 54 was in 2021.[128] The team lost two of its full-time drivers from 2021, Daniel Hemric, who moved to Kaulig Racing's No. 11 car, and Harrison Burton, who moved up to Wood Brothers Racing in the NASCAR Cup Series, who each bring sponsorship, and the team could not find sponsorship for the No. 54 car in multiple races in 2021. On November 16, JGR officially announced that it would only field 3 full-time Xfinity Series cars in 2022, thus shutting down the No. 20 team, because the No. 54 car would return in 2022 with Ty Gibbs as its full-time driver. It was later turned out the No. 54 was renumbered from the No. 20 after the season ended.[129]
  • On October 28, 2021, it was announced that RSS Racing would field two full-time cars again in 2022 with multiple drivers sharing the second car (announced to be the No. 38 on January 17, 2022). After previously fielding three full-time cars in 2018 and 2019 and two in 2020, the team downsized to one car, the No. 39, in 2021.[60] After two drivers of the No. 38, C. J. McLaughlin and Parker Retzlaff, were both announced to be running the race at Bristol in September, it appeared likely that RSS would field a third car in that race.[86][88] On January 20, 2022, RSS announced that they would field a third car, the No. 28, for Kyle Sieg part-time in 2022.[113]
  • On October 29, 2021, it was announced that Richard Childress Racing would field two full-time cars again in 2022, with their second car driven by Austin Hill.[58] On January 21, 2022, RCR revealed on their website that Hill's car number would be the No. 21, which the team has used in the Xfinity Series for many years.[130]
  • On November 17, 2021, MBM Motorsports owner Carl Long announced on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio that his team would downsize their Xfinity Series team to one full-time car in 2022. The team previously fielded three full-time cars, the Nos. 13, 61 and 66, with the No. 61 sharing the owner points with Hattori Racing Enterprises.[94]
  • On December 16, 2021, Our Motorsports announced that they would be expanding to three full-time cars in 2022. Jeb Burton will drive the team's new third car, the No. 27.[52]
  • On December 20, 2021, J. C. Stout (who drove part-time in the Xfinity Series from 2008 to 2010 and the Truck Series from 2003 to 2010) announced that he had bought some Toyotas from Joe Gibbs Racing and would be restarting his team, SQR Development (previously Stellar Quest Racing), which last competed in the series in 2009. The team planned to run 10 to 12 races with the first one being at Richmond.[131] On January 20, 2022, SQR announced that former Kyle Busch Motorsports and GMS Racing Truck Series driver Raphaël Lessard would drive the team's car, the No. 87, part-time.[132] Lessard and the No. 87 car were not on the entry list for the race at Richmond and Lessard revealed in a Facebook post on March 29 that the team would not be attempting any races due to personal issues involving team owner Stout.[133]
  • On January 13, 2022, Team Penske Vice Chairman Walt Czarnecki announced that Penske would not field an Xfinity Series team in 2022 unless a sponsor was interested. On February 15, 2022, Roger Penske revealed on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio that his team would field a part-time car in the Xfinity Series in 2022.[134]
  • On March 28, 2022, DGM Racing announced it would condense its Xfinity operation to two full-time teams with the No. 36 and No. 91 continuing to run full-time while the No. 92 would become a part-time car.[135] A day later, SS-Green Light Racing announced that it purchased the points of the No. 92 car for its No. 08 car, which had failed to qualify for four of the first six races of the season.[136]
  • On April 12, 2022, Richard Childress Racing announced that they would be fielding a third part-time car, the No. 3, in the spring race at Talladega with Jeffrey Earnhardt driving. It is the first time since 2018 that RCR has fielded the No. 3 car in the Xfinity Series.[111]
  • On April 19, 2022, B. J. McLeod Motorsports announced that they would scale back to two full-time cars, the No. 5 and No. 78, for the remainder of 2022, with the No. 99, previously a full-time car, now being fielded on a part-time basis.[137]
  • On June 2, 2022, Hendrick Motorsports announced it would field the No. 17 in three Xfinity races in 2022, with Kyle Larson running at Road America, Alex Bowman at Indianapolis, and William Byron at Watkins Glen. This marks HMS' return to the Xfinity Series after Tony Stewart won for the team at Daytona in 2009.[138]
  • On June 27, 2022, Team Stange Racing revealed that they would field an entry in the Xfinity Series race at the Indianapolis Road Course in order for Tarso Marques, who is running part-time in the Cup Series for the team, to be approved to race in the Cup Series, although they would end up not appearing on the entry list.[139]
  • On August 8, 2022, it was revealed that Kaulig Racing would field a fourth car, the No. 14, for the first time in the race at Daytona which will be driven by Justin Haley, who drives full-time in the Cup Series for the team.

Drivers

  • On September 15, 2020, JR Motorsports announced that Sam Mayer would run full-time for them in 2022 after running the second half of the 2021 season in their No. 8 car.[41] After the announcement that Josh Berry, who shared the No. 8 car with Mayer in 2021, would drive the No. 8 full-time in 2022, Dustin Albino from Jayski confirmed that Mayer would still run full-time for JRM in 2022.[140] Dale Earnhardt Jr. himself commented on NASCAR Reddit that it was possible that the team could run five cars full-time[141] so the team would not have to release one of their other full-time drivers. JRM had re-signed Noah Gragson and Justin Allgaier in addition to Berry and Mayer and it was likely that Michael Annett would return to the team in 2022 due to him bringing sponsorship from Pilot Flying J, so at that time, it was likely that Mayer would run full-time for JRM in the fifth car. However, with Annett announcing his retirement, Mayer will replace him as the team's fourth full-time driver and the team will not field a fifth car full-time. However, JRM will field a fifth car (the No. 88) in the spring Martinsville race for Earnhardt Jr. in his once-a-year Xfinity Series start. It is the first time since 2018 that JRM will have fielded five cars in a race.[106] On December 15, JRM revealed a new font for the No. 1 on their website, which indicates that it will be Mayer's car number in 2022.
  • On June 18, 2021, Kaulig Racing announced that Justin Haley, the driver of their No. 11 car in the Xfinity Series, would move up to the Cup Series full-time in 2022, driving the team's No. 31 car.[142] On September 25, Kaulig announced that Daniel Hemric would replace Haley in the No. 11 in 2022.[50] He drove the No. 18 for Joe Gibbs Racing in 2021 and won the championship. Hemric also drove Kaulig's No. 10 car in the race at Charlotte in 2019 as a relief driver for Austin Dillon.
  • On July 15, 2021, Team Penske announced that Austin Cindric would move up to the Cup Series full-time in 2022, replacing Brad Keselowski (who is moving to RFK Racing to become a driver/co-owner for that team) in the No. 2 car.[143] The team has yet to announce their plans for the No. 22 car, although at this time it appears most likely that it will go back to being an "all-star car" with their Cup Series drivers sharing the ride, according to Jordan Bianchi from The Athletic.[144]
  • On July 15, 2021, it was also announced that Harrison Burton, the driver of the No. 20 for Joe Gibbs Racing in the Xfinity Series, would be moving up to the Cup Series full-time in 2022, replacing Matt DiBenedetto in the No. 21 car for Wood Brothers Racing.[145] JGR has yet to announce who will replace Burton in the No. 20, although JGR part-time Xfinity and full-time ARCA driver Ty Gibbs and Kyle Busch Motorsports full-time Truck Series driver John Hunter Nemechek are widely considered to be the most likely candidates (although Nemechek would run part-time since he is returning to KBM in the Truck Series full-time in 2022). Gibbs could also stay in the No. 54, which he drove part-time in 2021, and run full-time in that car since Kyle Busch will not be returning to the Xfinity Series in 2022 after reaching his retirement goal of 100 wins in the series in 2021.[146] Gibbs could also drive JGR's No. 18 car in 2022 as Daniel Hemric will be leaving the team to drive the No. 11 for Kaulig Racing in 2022.[50]
  • On July 16, 2021, GMS Racing full-time Truck Series driver Sheldon Creed stated in an interview that he would like to move up to the Xfinity Series full-time in 2022.[147] On August 17, Chris Knight from Catchfence tweeted that Creed was close to getting a 2022 deal done.[148] On September 14, it was announced that Creed would drive full-time for Richard Childress Racing in the Xfinity Series in 2022.[55] On October 9, RCR announced that Creed would replace Myatt Snider in the No. 2 and that Snider would remain with RCR in their driver development program.[149] On November 3, it was announced that Snider would drive full-time for the RCR-aligned Jordan Anderson Racing in their No. 31 car in 2022.[40]
  • On July 27, 2021, Tommy Joe Martins announced that he will go back to part-time as a driver and his team's No. 44 will be split between him and multiple other drivers, one of which currently competes in ARCA and has yet to make a start in the top 3 series. Martins is expected to announce who that driver is sometime in August.[6] On August 30, Martins announced that the driver is Rajah Caruth, who will be running three races in the No. 44 car (one race at Martinsville, Dover, and Richmond) with the possibility of two more if sponsorship can be found (Pocono and Kansas). Caruth will also return to Rev Racing and the Drive for Diversity program in 2022 and will run full-time in the ARCA Menards Series.[5]
  • On August 16, 2021, JR Motorsports announced that Josh Berry would drive full-time in their No. 8 car in 2022, which he drove part-time in 2021.[45]
  • On September 9, 2021, it was announced that Colby Howard would drive full-time in the Truck Series for McAnally-Hilgemann Racing in 2022. He previously drove the No. 15 for JD Motorsports in the Xfinity Series full-time in 2021 and part-time in 2020.[150]
  • On September 21, 2021, it was announced that Stefan Parsons would drive full-time for B. J. McLeod Motorsports in 2022. He has driven part-time for the team since 2019, mostly in the No. 99 car.[97] On April 19, 2022, BJMM announced that they would be cutting back to two full-time cars with the No. 99 car and Parsons being reduced to a part-time schedule.
  • On October 2, 2021, Jamie Little revealed during the NASCAR on Fox pre-race show for the Truck Series race at Talladega that Austin Hill will not be returning to Hattori Racing Enterprises in 2022.

Schedule changes

  • Auto Club Speedway returns to the schedule for the first time in two years as a result of state COVID-19 regulations in California forcing the cancellation of the 2021 race. It is scheduled for the weekend after the Daytona 500 (February 25, 26, and 27), which would make it the second race of the season for the first time since 2010, replacing the Daytona Road Course.[191] This will also be the last race at the track before its proposed reconfiguration into a short track for 2023 (which has yet to be approved).
  • The major venue change is a swap of Green Savoree Racing Promotions circuits. Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course will lose its date, which will go to Portland International Raceway, which in return Mid-Ohio will be awarded a Camping World Truck Series date. Portland will be the only standalone date for the Xfinity Series in 2022.[188]
  • As for other slight realignments, Richmond will go from the late-summer date to the spring date and Homestead-Miami go from February to late-October, returning to the playoffs.[188][192]
