After qualifying for the NASCAR Cup Series playoffs with victories this season at Mexico City, Chicago and Sonoma, Shane van Gisbergen is bidding to join Chase Elliott and Jeff Gordon as the only drivers to win four consecutive races on road or street courses.

The NASCAR Cup Series is in New York this week to race at one of the drivers’ favorite tracks: Watkins Glen International. With just three races left before the playoffs, the stakes are high for those who haven’t yet clinched a win.

Shane van Gisbergen will make his NASCAR Cup Series playoffs debut this season, and Trackhouse Racing's team principal, Justin Marks, has affirmed his faith in the Kiwi for the upcoming challenges.
