In an exciting development for both sports and entertainment fans, Caitlin Clark, the standout number one overall pick in this year’s WNBA draft, will be prominently featured on a NASCAR vehicle during the Brickyard 400 in Indianapolis this weekend.

Clark, who has made waves with the Indiana Fever and broken records as the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer, continues to make headlines. Her remarkable college career has set the stage for her burgeoning WNBA career, drawing historic attendance and TV ratings. Now, her growing fame is stepping into the world of NASCAR.

Stuart-Haas Racing has teamed up with Panini America to showcase Clark on Josh Berry’s car for the iconic Brickyard 400. Berry, a rising star in NASCAR and the current Rookie of the Year points leader in the NASCAR Cup Series, shares Clark’s impressive rookie achievements.

Berry expressed his enthusiasm in a recent news release, stating, “It’s an honor to race at Indianapolis, a place held in such high regard by all of us in motorsports. To be there with Panini and promote the new Caitlin Clark collection just adds to the prestige of competing in the Brickyard 400.”

This isn’t the first time celebrities have graced NASCAR vehicles this year. Earlier, Ryan Blaney collaborated with Busch Light to feature country music artists on his car.
As the Brickyard 400 approaches, the inclusion of Caitlin Clark on the NASCAR vehicle underscores the crossover appeal of sports stars across different domains, blending the excitement of basketball and racing in a high-profile event.
