Katz Coffee, Spire Motorsports’ Official Coffee Provider, will serve as the primary sponsor aboard Justin Haley’s No. 7 Chevrolet ZL1 in Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series Würth 400 presented by LIQUI MOLY at Texas Motor Speedway.
Founded in Texas and headquartered in Houston, Katz Coffee has been aiming for perfection in every cup since 2003. The company specializes in small-batch, custom roasting with a focus on sourcing the finest coffee beans from farmers around the world. The Lone Star State’s largest specialty coffee roaster has served some of Houston’s highly-acclaimed chefs, restaurant and coffeehouse owners for more than 20 years.
“I’m excited for Katz Coffee to ride along with me at Texas Motor Speedway,” said Haley. “I’ve had a lot of great runs at Texas, so hopefully we can mix it up at the front of the field and compete for the win. Katz does a great job of fueling the men and women at Spire Motorsports with rich, great tasting coffee both at the shop and at the track every weekend. I’m not going out on a limb when I say Spire Motorsports and Katz Coffee have the best coffee game in the sport.”
Haley scored a series/venue best third-place finish in November 2022 and is well accustomed to the “Great American Speedway” across all three of NASCAR’s national touring series. He finished 13th last fall in the Cup Series most recent visit to the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.
The Winamac, Ind., native earned five top-10 finishes across six NASCAR Xfinity Series starts and notched a November 2018 win in CRAFTSMAN Truck Series competition that propelled him into the series’ Championship 4 race two weeks later at Homestead-Miami Speedway. On top of the win, Haley boasts top-10 results in all five of his NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series starts at the ultra-fast 1.5-mile Fort Worth tri-oval.
Over the course of his career, the newly minted 26-year-old, who celebrated his birthday Tuesday, has collected four NASCAR Xfinity Series checkered flags and three CRAFTSMAN Truck Series wins, making him one of just 41 drivers in history to have earned wins across all three of NASCAR’s National Touring Series.
He is a veteran of 154 Cup Series starts where he’s logged one win, five top fives, 17 top 10s and led 103 laps.
“We’re proud to celebrate another big moment in our partnership with Spire Motorsports by sponsoring Justin Haley’s car during his birthday week,” said Katz Coffee Owner Avi Katz. “It’s an exciting milestone for Katz Coffee, and we’re thrilled to fuel the drive for success both on and off the track. Here’s to a weekend powered by Liquid Love and full of momentum, fueled by Katz!”
The Würth 400 presented by LIQUI MOLI will be televised live on FS1, Sunday, May 4 beginning at 3:30 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The 11th of 36 points-paying races on the 2025 NCS schedule will be broadcast live on the Performance Racing Network and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Channel 90.

Privateer Ferrari Wins 24 Hours of Le Mans

Ferrari’s 499P won the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the third consecutive time in 2025, but this year’s trophy won’t end up in the company’s Maranello, Italy, headquarters. Wearing number 83, and tellingly finished in bright yellow instead of red, the winning car was entered by an Italian privateer team named AF Corse.
The team entered a single car in the day-long race, which was a bold move. If it breaks, you’re out. It also enlisted the help of three respected drivers: Robert Kubica, Phil Hanson, and official Ferrari driver Yifei Ye. The win made history in more ways than one: Ye, who was born in Xi’an, became the first Chinese racer to win the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Kubica, who is from Kraków, became the first Polish driver on the podium.




Ferrari’s odds of winning Le Mans looked bleak after qualifying: The quickest 499P secured seventh and the winning car started back in 11th. However, the three 499Ps ended up near the front of the pack almost immediately after the start. The trio put up one hell of a fight against the Porsche 963s, and for a while it looked like Ferrari would score a one-two-three finish. And, the podium could have looked much different had Alessandro Pier Guidi not spun the #51 499P while entering the pits about 20 hours into the race.
Second place went to a Porsche 963 (#6) driven by Matt Campbell, Kevin Estre, and Laurens Vanthoor; It crossed the finish line roughly 14 seconds behind the winner. One of the two factory-backed 499Ps (#51) finished third, about 28 seconds behind AF Corse’s car. Its sister car (#50) ended the race in fourth place.
Cadillac’s V-Series.R took pole position for the first time, but two of the four cars that lined up on the starting grid retired due to engine problems. The remaining two cars placed fifth (#12) and eighth (#38), respectively. Aston Martin’s long-awaited return to the top category at Le Mans didn’t go as planned, either: It entered two examples of the Valkyrie, which finished 13th (#009) and 15th (#007), respectively.
Inter Europol Competition took first place in the LMP2 category in an Oreca 07. And, while Porsche didn’t manage to secure its 20th overall win at Le Mans, it nonetheless beat rival Ferrari in the GT3 class. First place went to the Manthey 1st Phorm team’s Porsche 911 GT3 R, while Vista AF Corse’s Ferrari 296 GT3 finished second and TF Sport’s Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R (which sounded awesome) secured third.

NASCAR Mexico City results: Elliott, Bowman, Byron earn top 10s in inaugural Cup Series event

MEXICO CITY – Hendrick Motorsports’ consistency and speed in 2025 certainly made it across the border this weekend.
Chase Elliott (third) and Alex Bowman (fourth) gave the organization a pair of top-five showings as the NASCAR Cup Series held a points-paying event at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in Mexico City for the first time on Sunday afternoon.
William Byron, who extended his points lead over teammate Kyle Larson to 67 tallies (unofficially), also came home with a ninth-place showing thanks to a furious late rally down the stretch.
Unpredictability loomed large from the start as rain showers brought out a caution flag before the completion of lap one. From there ensued a mixed bag of fuel strategies and, in the early going, a balancing wet and dry tires.
But Elliott’s speed and road-course acumen showed up in spades as he twice navigated through traffic after pit stops before coming home with his best finish of the year.
RELATED: Jeff Gordon to give command at Mexico City
“I felt like we were in a really good spot, and I was super excited about having tires,” Elliott said. “I think we just pressed so hard to try and get through the traffic that when we got singled out, I just didn’t have a lot of pace left.
“Really proud of our LLumar Chevy group for sticking with it … Finally got going there a few runs from the end and (crew chief) Alan (Gustafson) made a good call to get us on tires.”

For Bowman, the performance was a testament to toughness as he fought through back pain resulting from a crash at Michigan International Speedway the week prior to register his third top-five finish of the season.
Elliott picked up a pair of stage points in the race’s first segment and both he and Byron were running well inside the top 10 toward the end of stage two before short pitting. Bowman, meanwhile, stayed out and finished third, earning eight valuable markers to add to his cushion above the playoff bubble.
An important moment in the outcome of the event came with 36 laps to go as Carson Hocevar spun and stalled, bringing out the caution flag. It would be the last stoppage of the event.
Having already pitted in the final stage, Bowman stayed out, assuming the third position, and with fresh tires, Elliott and Byron began their march forward when the green waved again. Byron was momentarily hindered by some contact early in the stint but found his way through while it was smooth sailing for Elliott, who picked his way forward spot-by-spot before running out of laps.
Kyle Larson qualified highest among the Hendrick Motorsports contingent in sixth. However, just seven laps in, Larson was caught up in a crash not of his own doing as Kyle Busch lost control, slamming into the No. 5 Valvoline Chevy.
With every point mattering, however, the team furiously went to work in the garage to get the car back on track. Larson returned several laps down and after repairs and pit stops, laid down the race’s fastest lap, earning a bonus point in the process.
The NASCAR Cup Series will return next week with a race at Pocono Raceway. The green flag is set to wave at 2 p.m. next Sunday and will air on Prime Video.

Treyten Lapcevich Dominates at Berlin Raceway to Earn First ARCA Menards Series Win – Speedway Digest
In a commanding performance at the Berlin Raceway, Treyten Lapcevich scored his first-career ARCA Menards Series victory, leading all 200 laps from the pole to claim a flag-to-flag win.

In a commanding performance at the Berlin Raceway, Treyten Lapcevich scored his first-career ARCA Menards Series victory, leading all 200 laps from the pole to claim a flag-to-flag win. The triumph also marked the first ARCA victory for Nitro Motorsports since their planned acquisition of Venturini Motorsports (VMS), as they continue to build their efforts towards the complete transition at the end of the season.
Making his second ARCA start of 2025 even more memorable, Lapcevich topped the charts in qualifying before executing a flawless race to seal a dominant performance in front of a packed Berlin Raceway crowd. This was his second trip to the podium in 2025, building from his third-place result in Phoenix with VMS earlier this season.
“This is a huge moment for Nitro Motorsports,” explained team owner Nick Tucker. “To get our first win at a track as tough as Berlin, and to do it in such dominant fashion, says a lot about our team and about Treyten. We’re proud to work alongside Venturini Motorsports and appreciate their support in helping us get here.”
The partnership between Nitro Motorsports and Venturini Motorsports proved fruitful, combining resources and experience to field a competitive program that delivered immediate success. With multiple strong results early in the season, including those of Thad Moffitt, the culmination of a rookie program and a seasoned winning effort has proven to be massively successful.
“It’s an amazing feeling,” added race winner Treyten Lapcevich. “To win my first ARCA Menards Series race, lead every lap, and bring home a win for Nitro Motorsports and Venturini is something I’ll never forget. The car was perfect all night, and I can’t thank everyone involved enough.”
For Venturini Motorsports, the result added to their legacy in the ARCA Menards Series, their 108th series win. Still, this one held extra meaning as it came in collaboration with a rising new team that will continue their winning ways in 2026 and beyond.
“We’ve worked with a lot of great partners over the years, and it’s been fantastic teaming up with Nick Tucker and Nitro Motorsports,” continued Billy Venturini, owner of Venturini Motorsports. “They brought a lot to the table, and to see the car win in such dominant fashion is proof that this kind of collaboration can be powerful. We’re excited about what’s ahead.”
The win solidifies Lapcevich as a name to watch in the ARCA Menards Series and underscores Nitro Motorsports’ continued growth across multiple racing platforms.

Shane van Gisbergen picked up his first win of the NASCAR Cup Series season as the master of road-course racing drove to Victory Lane in Mexico City.
It was almost a disastrous Sunday for the New Zealand native. As he outpaced Christopher Bell by 16.567 seconds, he opened up about the “queasy” feeling that plagued him all day.

“I tried to treat it like when I go to Asia, just drink bottled water and be careful in the shower and brush your teeth with bottled water, but I just went downhill,” he said. “Couldn’t keep anything in. Everything just went straight through me. I felt really queasy, and my mind was there, but my body just had so much pressure in my stomach. Crazy weekend and everyone dug deep.”
It appeared to be a tough week overall, which started with a mechanical issue on his team’s charter flight that paused his initial trip to Mexico. He slept on the floor of his hauler before the race, unsure if he would be able to compete at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez.

Regardless of the illness, van Gisbergen still managed to lead 60 of the 100 laps. The win gives him hope that he could earn a berth into the NASCAR Playoffs.
“It means everything to us, this is why I’m here,” van Gisbergen said. “I am getting better and more competitive. We’re really making a lot of progress.”
The next race on the NASCAR Cup Series schedule is Pocono.

Van Gisbergen will enter the race 30th in the standings, but the victory in Mexico City will go a long way as long as 17 different drivers don’t win races from here on out.
