Ryan Blaney: "What a cool way to win here, this place means a lot to me."
ౠRyan Blaney wins the first-🏅ever NASCAR Cup Series race at the Iowa Speedway.

Ryan Blaney returns to winning ways in the NASCAR Cup Series in the inaugur✱al race at his home circuit in Iowa.
The reigning NASCAR Cup Series Champion is back in Victory Road once again and🐬 gets to celebrate his first win of 2024 at home. Blaܫney has also become the first driver to win a Truck Series race, a Xfinity Series race and a Cup Series race at Iowa.
After the race, Blaney was asked by NBC Sports whether this race win feels a bit more spec꧃ial than his ten other career wins:
“Definitely. What a cool way to win here. This place means a lot to me, it means⛎ a lot to my mum, we have a lot of people here tonight cheering us on they willed us to 😼that one.
“Our car was really fast all night, we got a little better through the night. The two tyres were a good call there at the end, I didn’t know how well they were going to hold on I started to struggle𒆙 at the end, so I had to hang on.”
With the Iowa Speedway being his home circuit Blaney was asked about the sღupport he received at🀅 the track from his fans and his family this weekend:
“I am looking forward to seeing them, it is always good to have family here. I have been super lucky to have family that support me through my career. It is gre🍒at that they are still supporting me just as much as on day one.”
Throughout his career, the 30-yeꦯ💟ar-old has barely gone over the top with his celebrations to the point where he barely does a burnout after a race win. However, that changed tonight as Blaney treated his home fans to a burnout:
“It is my home track I have got to. It is cool I have won Truck Series here, Xfinity here and now Cup Series here so that is cool. It was a long r🍸ace, and I drove hard, so I figured I deserved a burnout.”
