Magnussen Makes NASCAR Debut

Kevin Magnussen, ex-F1 star and Le Mans veteran, makes his NASCAR Cup Series debut this Sunday behind the wheel of the 91 Qualcomm Chevrolet at Naval Base Coronado—the first NASCAR race ever held on an active military base. With just one practice session before qualifying, Magnussen faces a steep learning curve transitioning from open-wheel to stock cars. Teaming up with Shane van Gisbergen and Ross Chastain at Trackhouse Racing, he’s already getting acclimated with pit stops and a custom seat. Crew chief Phil Surgen, key to Chastain’s success, will guide him. Can the Danish driver conquer street course racing in his NASCAR debut?
