Layout of Sonoma Raceway, the track where the race was held.

Sonoma Raceway, formerly Sears Point Raceway and Infineon Raceway is a 1.99-mile (3.20 km) road course and drag strip located on the landform known as Sears Point in the southern Sonoma Mountains in Sonoma, California, U.S. The road course features 12 turns on a hilly course with 160 feet (49 m) of total elevation change. It is host to one of only seven NASCAR Cup Series races each year that are run on road courses. It is also host to the NTT IndyCar Series and several other auto races and motorcycle races such as the American Federation of Motorcyclists series. Sonoma Raceway continues to host amateur, or club racing events which may or may not be open to the general public. The largest such car club is the Sports Car Club of America.

In 2022, the race was reverted to racing the club configuration.[8]

Fox NASCAR televised the race in the United States on FS1 for the sixth year. Mike Joy was the lap-by-lap announcer, while Larry McReynolds and three-time Sonoma winner, three-time NASCAR Cup Series champion and co-owner of Stewart-Haas Racing Tony Stewart were the color commentators. McReynolds replaced normal analyst Clint Bowyer, the 2012 Sonoma winner, on leave for what was confirmed on June 16 as legal issues during the investigation into a fatal crash near Osage Beach, Missouri where Bowyer's car struck and killed an impaired woman believed to be under the influence of methamphetamine. The incident occurred June 5 on his way from the previous race in the St. Louis metropolitan region to Emporia, Kansas, where he owns dealerships.[11]

Jamie Little and Vince Welch handled pit road for the television side.
