The NASCAR Cup Series competed at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and it was a fascinating event. Ty Gibbs won Stage 1 while Ross Chastain won Stage 2; however, neither driver was able to enter victory lane. Instead, it was a 23XI Racing driver who stunned the NASCAR world again.
Corey Heim and the No. 67 team for 23XI Racing won the 2026 Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis on Sunday evening. This was Heim’s second win of the 2026 Cup Series season and his first NASCAR Crown Jewel victory. The driver of the No. 67 car had to hold off Christopher Bell, who was faster at the end.

While passing the leader was impossible on Sunday, Heim was able to take advantage, hitting all of his marks. One slip-up would’ve given the lead to Bell and Joe Gibbs Racing. Instead, Heim is now a Crown Jewel winner, further proving why he will have a long and successful career in the Cup Series.
