With the beautiful backdrop of wine country, there need to be some beautiful NASCAR paint schemes as well. Thankfully, we have five great looks on the track for the weekend. Not a lot of deviation on the schemes this week, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some memorable ones.

This race is a home track race for a number of Cup Series drivers. Kyle Larson, Tyler Reddick, and AJ Allmendinger are not far from where they call home this week. We even have two of those drivers on our list for the best looks at the Toyota Save Mart 350.

Road-course racing can be frustrating, it can be hard, and it can lead to emotions flying around. But with the beauty of Sonoma and the beauty of these NASCAR paint schemes, it shouldn’t be too hard to get these drivers to calm down.

Besides, they can always reach for a glass of merlot or a cabernet sauvignon if they feel a little on edge.

NASCAR schemes fit for wine country

It seems that every week, Kevin Harvick has a paint scheme worthy of making this list. This week is no different. It is a little twist on the Mobil 1 scheme that he has driven before. It is just always great to see that Pegasus on the No. 4 Ford Mustang.

Numerically speaking, it didn’t take long to find the other great scheme. It isn’t often that we see him switch up his schemes, but Kyle Larson is repping Valvoline this week at Sonoma. It looks so clean. A little retro, a little modern – completely awesome.

The one team that has put together some good schemes on a regular basis, underrated schemes at times, is Kaulig Racing. They are coming into Sonoma Raceway with a local sponsor. Gabriel Glas is a high-end glassware company that has all your wine needs. It also makes for a great NASCAR scheme.

This is one that gets me excited. Bubba Wallace has had some great 80s-inspired designs on his car. Bright colors and highlights on the car in just the right places. Compared to the gray blob of a McDonald’s scheme he races most of the time, schemes like this and his All-Star design with Columbia are awesome. DoorDash is feeling the summer vibes.

Speaking of summer vibes, Ally Racing is back with a strong Pride Month paint scheme. Alex Bowman is going to rock this fun design at Sonoma this weekend. It isn’t much of a change from the regular Ally design, but the “A” on the hood has the pride flag colors. It is a small change, but a noticeable one and is something that NASCAR should embrace more.

Five strong schemes that are going to look great on the track at Sonoma Raceway. We will see if these five make it to the end of the race looking as pretty as they look at the start of it. NASCAR road course action, coming at you this Sunday.
