Emotional NASCAR win for van Gisbergen in Mexico
Kiwi Shane van Gisbergen has mastered the Mexico City road course to score his first NASCAR Cup Series win this season and set up a shot at championship glory. The New Zealander led 60 of 100 laps on Sunday at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez to earn his first cup victory since his NASCAR debut at the inaugural 2023 street course race in Chicago. The former Australian V8 Supercars champion started the race ranked 33rd in the cup standings with only one top-10 finish through the first 15 races. But his victory in Mexico City earned him an automatic berth into NASCAR's playoffs with a shot to race for the Cup Series championship. SVG WINS IN MEXICO! 🇲🇽 — NASCAR (@NASCAR) June 15, 2025 He won pole in Mexico City and started the race as favourite, particularly since rain was in the forecast. His win in Chicago also came in wet conditions. The 36-year-old had to contend with several challengers, Ty Gibbs and Christopher Bell of Joe Gibbs Racing among them, but took the lead for good with 31 laps remaining. NASCAR races next Sunday at Pocono Raceway, where Ryan Blaney won last year.
