Three-time Supercar champion Shane van Gisbergen will make his NASCAR Cup Series debut this Sunday driving the No. 91 Enhanced Health/Quad Lock Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 in the inaugural NASCAR Cup Series race on the Chicago Street course.
Van Gisbergen will join the grid of the first-ever NASCAR Cup Series street race located in downtown Chicago. The event will take competitors past and through many of the city’s most renowned downtown landmarks on Michigan Avenue, South Columbus Drive, South Lake Shore Drive and the start-finish line near Buckingham Fountain.
Van Gisbergen isn’t a stranger to America finishing second in the 2015 24 Hours of Daytona in the GTD class.
Van Gisbergen has spent time at Nashville Superspeedway plus a 50-lap introduction run at Charlotte Motor Speedway on Monday and simulator sessions with General Motors this week.
The event will mark the third race for PROJECT91 after appearances by 2007 Formula One World Champion Kimi Räikkönen at Watkins Glen (N.Y.) International in 2022 and at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas on March 26.
