Honestly have no idea how much NASCAR drivers are paid. Figured it's a lot since they are a bukkake of advertisment

It really depends on how good you are. The better the driver, the better the sponsorship deal. Guys like Gordon made millions of dollars a year because they were consistently winning races. Those who struggle to even finish a race make significantly less.

I think they make around $100,000 if they win a race. If they are last I think it’s like $15,000 or so. But some get a lot of endorsement money.

After glossing over a Forbes article, I have learned Denny Hamlin was the third highest paid driver in 2016, making $15.2 million after winnings and endorsements. Jimmie Johnson and Dale Jr each made $21 million

The top 12 drivers in the sport earned $168 million in 2016 from salaries, endorsements and their share of purses and licensing. It is a significant decline from 2013 when we estimated the top 12 at $192 million.
