LOUDON, N.H. – Ryan Blaney’s victory Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway was a non-too subtle wake-up call for the rest of the NASCAR Cup Series Playoff field that Team Penske is up and ready to roll on another Cup championship.
The popular 2023 champ Blaney opened this three-race round of the 2025 Playoffs by leading 116 laps en route to his third victory of the season – resoundingly claiming that automatic bid into the championship’s Round of 8.
LOUDON, N.H. – “The Magic Mile” lived up to its name on a chilly morning as Tyler Rypkema scored a dramatic victory in the Mohegan Sun 100 NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour (NWMT) race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway (NHMS).
