When Katherine Legge took the green flag at Phoenix Raceway earlier this year, she became the 17th different woman to compete at the Cup level. The last woman to run a Cup race before her was Danica Patrick over seven years ago. And much like Patrick's last race, Legge's debut was eventful, spinning twice and falling 102 laps shy of the checkered flag. But the 44-year-old remains undeterred.
Thursday, Legge shared plans to run at least seven more NASCAR races this year between both Cup and Xfinity — and partnering with a familiar sponsor: e.l.f. Cosmetics. Her next appearance will come next weekend, April 19th, in the NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Rockingham -- NASCAR's first Xfinity race at the historic oval in over two decades. She will drive the No. 32 Chevrolet for Jordan Anderson Racing. She has five previous starts in the Xfinity Series, placing as high as 14th at Road America in 2018.
