Van Gisbergen Shines on Ovals

Shane van Gisbergen just shattered his oval track ceiling, finishing fifth at Nashville Superspeedway — his first top-five on an oval in 64 Cup Series starts. After a bold two-tire pit gamble put him briefly in command, he battled fiercely, even reclaiming the lead before settling into a strong top-ten run. His crew chief calls these finishes the new norm, and with 32 championship points banked and a 5.67 average over his last three races, van Gisbergen’s momentum is now squarely in playoff range. He’s not just winning races — he’s building a team that’s finally clicking, and he’s lifting his crewmates along the way. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
