Corey Heim Claims First Cup Win

Corey Heim delivered a dream debut win in the NASCAR Cup Series, capturing victory in San Diego and leading a historic one-two finish for 23XI Racing alongside teammate Bubba Wallace. With just his 13th start, Heim’s triumph marks a major milestone as the 29th driver to win a Cup race this season — and sets him up for a full-time ride next year. The race was a whirlwind of strategy, cautions, and lead changes, with Ryan Blaney and Ryan Preece claiming stage wins, while six drivers, including pole-sitter Shane van Gisbergen, didn’t finish. Heim crossed the line 10 seconds ahead of Wallace, with Kyle Larson third, as 29 cars completed the race on the lead lap — proving this was more than just a win, it was a statement.
