How would someone describe a driver who emerges into the Cup Series arena and right in his rookie season, bags a triumph in the prestigious Daytona 500, wins his first Cup Series pole and even, his first playoff spot? Supremely talented, perhaps. Starting with a stellar season, the 2022 Daytona 500 winner Austin Cindric paired up with his old crew chief, Brian Wilson, from his Xfinity days, late in the 2023 season with the determination to build on the success that he had achieved the previous year.
The number 2 Team Penske star started from the top-10 six times. He narrowly missed the pole position in the fifth race of the year at Atlanta Motor Speedway. However, as 2023 brought about the first-ever Chicago road course race to NASCAR's schedule, Cindric displayed his road racing prowess and put up a solid sixth-place performance.
Before advancing to the Cup level, Cindric has been quite successful in the lower-tier races of NASCAR as well. In his four-year stint in the Xfinity Series (2018-2021), Cindric bagged the 2020 drivers' championship and the 2021 owners' title. In his first year, he drove selected races for Roush Fenway Racing and Team Penske. His success landed him his first full-time deal with Team Penske in 2019. Today, the veteran racer drives the #2 Ford Mustang Dark Horse for Roger Penske's team.
