Because it is the biggest and most notable racing series out there.

Uh, no. In the US, perhaps, but worldwide, it doesn't even hold a candle to F1

F1 is a 1.6 billion dollar industry. NASCAR attracts more than 3 billion in sponsorship money alone. That doesnt count ticket sales, TV deals and merchandise sales.

Maybe you are referriing to popularity, but financially, no.

Besides, NASCAR isn’t the top tier series for the FIA. That alone makes F1 the most important racing series out there, and this is coming from a guy that hates F1. Like, with a passion LOL... America really doesn't care what the rest of the world thinks... We have an FIA delegation just like we have an Olympic Committee... And have you actually LOOKED at a NASCAR? They are billboards that move at 200MPH.... And Driver interviews? Every third word is the name of a sponsor. There are more races, many more teams, and its market is still the largest economy in the world....

And, like I said, I like F1 better, but as far as size and marketing influence, you can't beat NASCAR. Just look at the sponsors. There are hardly any consumer products on the sponsorship of cars... well except for Red Bull, but they field their own team.
