The 2025 BetRivers 200 was the 20th stock car race of the 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series, and the 44th iteration of the event. The race was held on Saturday, July 19, 2025, at Dover Motor Speedway in Dover, Delaware, a permanent asphalt oval shaped speedway. The race was contested over 134 laps, decreased from 200 laps due to inclement weather.

Connor Zilisch, driving for JR Motorsports, would take the lead from Brandon Jones after the first stage, and dominated the remainder of the event, winning the second stage and led a race-high 77 laps in a rain-shortened race to earn his fifth career NASCAR Xfinity Series win, his fourth of the season, and his second consecutive win. To fill out the podium, Aric Almirola and Jones, both driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively.

This was the final Xfinity Series event for Our Motorsports, after they announced on July 18 that they would cease their operations following this race. Three days prior, they released Kris Wright in a mutual agreement.

Report

Background

Dover Motor Speedway is an oval race track in Dover, Delaware, United States that has held at least two NASCAR races since it opened in 1969. In addition to NASCAR, the track also hosted USAC and the NTT IndyCar Series. The track features one layout, a concrete oval, with 24° banking in the turns and 9° banking on the straights. The speedway is owned and operated by Speedway Motorsports.

The track, nicknamed "The Monster Mile", was built in 1969 by Melvin Joseph of Melvin L. Joseph Construction Company, Inc., with an asphalt surface, but was replaced with concrete in 1995. Six years later in 2001, the track's capacity moved to 135,000 seats, making the track have the largest capacity of sports venue in the mid-Atlantic. In 2002, the name changed to Dover International Speedway from Dover Downs International Speedway after Dover Downs Gaming and Entertainment split, making Dover Motorsports. From 2007 to 2009, the speedway worked on an improvement project called "The Monster Makeover", which expanded facilities at the track and beautified the track. After the 2014 season, the track's capacity was reduced to 95,500 seats.
