Mexico will have a local representative in the most anticipated NASCAR Xfinity Series weekend of the year. Young driver Andrés Pérez de Lara has been confirmed to compete on Saturday, June 14, at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in the highly awaited race, “The Chilango 150.”
The 20-year-old Mexican driver will be one of the standout figures in the return after a 17-year absence of the Xfinity Series to Mexico City. A full-time competitor in the NASCAR Truck Series, Andrés will take advantage of a break in his schedule to race in front of his home crowd on the track where he grew up as an athlete.
