Daniel Suárez became the first Mexican-born driver to win a NASCAR Cup Series race on Sunday on Sonoma Raceway.
Suárez, a 30-year-old native of Monterrey, finally won in the 195th career start of a Cup Series career that began in 2017. He also drove his Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet to the third Cup Series victory of the season for this rising 2-year-old team co-owned by former driver Justin Marks and music star Pitbull.
"It's crazy," Suárez said."I have so many thoughts in my head right now. It's been a rough journey in the Cup Series, and these guys believed in me. I have a lot of people to thank in Mexico. My family, they never gave up on me. A lot of people did, but they didn't. I'm just happy we were able to make it work."
"They believed in me since Day One," Suárez said of his team." all the people, all the resources to make it happen."Buescher's second-place finish was also a season best in his RFK Racing Ford. He fell just short of his second career victory. Suárez, who won the Xfinity Series championship in 2016, is the fifth foreign-born driver to win a Cup Series race. He joins Colombia's Juan Pablo Montoya, Australia's Marcos Ambrose, Canada's Earl Ross and Italian-born American Mario Andretti.
