The NASCAR made history Sunday in Chicago with the premier Cup Series’ first street-course race, and New Zealander Shane van Gisbergen found himself walking away with the checkered flag for the No. 91 Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet — making him the first driver to win his first Cup start in 60 years.
Because of inclement weather, however, the Grant Park 220 was shortened from 100 laps down to 75 before the race went into overtime for a 78-lap event.
