Shane van Gisbergen signs with Trackhouse in 2024 NASCAR move
Shane van Gisbergen made a strong impression in his NASCAR debut when he won the Cup race at the Chicago Street Course, becoming the first driver in 60 years to win in his first-ever Cup Series start. He followed it up with a top-ten finish at the Indianapolis RC, a feat not achieved since 1978 by Terry Labonte. Van Gisbergen also made his Truck Series debut, finishing 19th. In 2024, he will join Trackhouse Racing’s developmental program, racing in select races across all three national divisions of the sport. Van Gisbergen expressed gratitude to his team and described the move to NASCAR as a new chapter in his career and a big challenge. The exact details of his 2024 schedule are yet to be released, but the team’s goal is to get him up to speed quickly on oval tracks and superspeedways. Before heading to America, Van Gisbergen still has a title fight in Supercars, with the Sandown 500 being the next race.
