Ryan Blaney was the “Man” at Music City’s Nashville Speedway Sunday evening, winning the Cracker Barrel 400 in an impressive run. The popular Team Penske driver had his Menards No. 12 Ford Mustang humming a tune of victory.
Blaney took over in the final stage, leading a race-high 139 laps including the final 32 laps to record his first win on the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season. After a rough start to 2025 with a disappointing five DNFs, Blaney broke through at Nashville to earn his way into the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs after his Team Penske teammates Joey Logano and Austin Cindric won earlier.
