The first woman to drive a Cup Series car in seven years, Legge spun out twice and didn't finish the race in her debut at Phoenix Raceway on Sunday. “It was baptism by fire,” Legge told Fox Sports. “I think there’s a lot of positives to take from it. Obviously, there were mistakes made, but I learned so much. Hopefully, I get to come back.”

Katherine Legge became the first woman to race in the NASCAR Cup Series race since 2018 on Sunday at Phoenix Raceway.

Katherine Legge didn’t accomplish her goal of finishing the NASCAR Cup Series Shriners Children’s 500 at Phoenix Raceway, but she still made history as the first woman to pilot NASCAR’s Next Gen car introduced in 2022.
