Joey Logano moves to 25th on wins list
Joey Logano’s Sunday victory at Las Vegas Motor Speedway propelled the two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion to 25th overall on the series’ all-time wins list.
Logano led six laps in the South Point 400 en route to his third victory of 2024 and the 35th of his career, breaking a three-way tie with 2004 series champion Kurt Busch and 2017 series champion Martin Truex Jr.
“So proud of our race team all the way through,” Logano said. “This group of guys, they’re truly incredible. They’re good people, which is one of the things I’m most proud of, but they’re really smart.
“In the Playoffs, they’re able to really be able to keep a level head and maximize the races no matter what’s dealt with them.”
All but two of Logano’s Cup Series wins have come with Team Penske, with the Connecticut-native earning at least one win per season since 2013.
Logano’s first win came at New Hampshire in June of 2009 and his second at Pocono in June 2012, both with Joe Gibbs Racing.
Ahead of Logano on the wins list are Brad Keselowski (36), Bobby Isaac (37), Tim Flock (39), Matt Kenseth (39), and Mark Martin (40).
Logano is the only driver locked into the Championship 4 race at Phoenix next month as a title contender.
The next race for the series is scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 27 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
