In Pixar's Cars 3, at which Florida speedway is the final Piston Cup race held?

In Pixar's Cars 3, the final Piston Cup race is held at Florida International Speedway. The fictional circuit hosts the climactic competition involving Lightning McQueen, Jackson Storm, and Cruz Ramirez.

McQueen begins Cars 3 trying to prove that he can still compete with the new generation. After training in several locations and rebuilding his confidence, he returns to the Piston Cup season's decisive race at the Florida track. The setting provides the stage for the film's major change in roles and expectations.

The race is especially important because McQueen does not simply repeat the outcome viewers might expect from an older champion. Cruz's ability becomes central to the strategy, and McQueen's decision reflects the film's themes of mentorship, legacy, and making room for a new competitor. The finale therefore resolves both the sporting contest and McQueen's personal story.

Florida International Speedway is a fictional Cars location and should not be confused with real Florida motorsport venues such as Daytona International Speedway. The Los Angeles International Speedway belongs to the first film, while Thomasville Speedway appears during Cars 3's training storyline.
