Van Gisbergen's Emotional Win in Mexico City Locks Him Into NASCAR Playoffs
- This weekend marks NASCAR's first modern-era Cup Series event held beyond U.S. borders, taking place at Mexico City's Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez amid ongoing travel challenges.

- As a result, NASCAR rescheduled Friday's Cup practices to later in the afternoon and moved all Xfinity Series practice sessions to a single 50-minute session on Saturday morning before qualifying.
- Daniel Suarez emphasized the significance of competing in front of his home fans as a unique and motivating experience, while Regina Sivient made history by becoming the first Mexican woman to participate in the ARCA Menards Series.
- These adjustments and milestones highlight NASCAR's efforts to expand into Mexico and provide opportunities for emerging talent despite logistical challenges.
