Here’s the list of NASCAR Mexico Series drivers set to race during The Clash weekend in 2024
A few days ago, NASCAR announced they will return to the LA Coliseum in 2024. New for next year’s event, the NASCAR Mexico Series will also make an appearance.
“This is a tremendous win for our fans and our sport,” said Ben Kennedy, NASCAR’s senior vice president, racing development and strategy. “Not only will the fans see the stars of the NASCAR Cup Series in action, they will also bear witness to the talent and skill that is found within the NASCAR Mexico Series. I can’t think of a better way to begin our 2024 season.”
“This is an incredible honor for the NASCAR Mexico Series and its drivers,” said Jimmy Morales, president and general manager of the NASCAR Mexico Series. “The competition in our series is always intense, but I know our drivers will want nothing more than to become the first Mexican driver to win inside the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. This is going to be a race we will not soon forget.”
