The WNBA player Clark will be represented on Josh Berry’s Stewart-Haas Racing car at the upcoming NASCAR Brickyard 400.
This is an honor that not many people get to have: Clark will be on the car as part of her deal with collectibles company Panini America, the official trading card partner of NASCAR.
Earlier this month, Panini America released the 15-card Highlights set, which features the most iconic moments of Clark’s career to date. Clark is the first and only female athlete to have her own trading card set.
The picture from that set of trading cards, the “Reigning 3’s” insert, is what Panini America decided to put on the car of the NASCAR Cup Series Rookie of the Year points leader on July 21 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
“Every driver aspires to compete in the Indianapolis 500. We all treat this sacred place with the utmost reverence, according to Josh Berry.
“Participating in the Brickyard 400 with Panini to showcase their latest Caitlin Clark Collection only elevates the race’s prestige.” It’s an honor to have Caitlin Clark as a part of our endeavor because Indianapolis is a fantastic sports town.
Stewart-Haas Racing and Panini America unveiled a time-lapse film showing one of the #4 cars receiving a “Caitlin Clark facelift.”
The day before the Brickyard 400, Caitlin Clark will play in the WNBA All-Star Game in Phoenix against a group of WNBA players chosen to compete in the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
Hall of Fame basketball player Rebecca Lobo stated on X (Twitter) on Tuesday, “Caitlin Clark has scored or assisted on 849 of the @IndianaFever’s 2,033 points this season (41.8%).
Clark has definitely earned that honor.” This season, it is the most points and highest percentage of team points scored by any individual. Additionally, Indianapolis has demonstrated the hardest schedule strength.
After 25 games in her debut season, Clark is averaging 16.8 points, 7.8 assists, 5.8 rebounds, and 1.5 steals.
