During the ongoing Olympics break at NASCAR, reigning Cup Series champion Ryan Blaney spent some quality time with his fiance Gianna Tulio. The couple vacationed on St. Martin Island in the Caribbean.
Blaney began dating Tulio in 2020. Since then, the Hooters's modeling ambassador has been a permanent addition at NASCAR venues during race weekends. After being together for over three years, the duo decided to take the next step in their relationship.
After winning the Cup Series championship last season, Blaney proposed to Tulio on their trip to Washington in December.
With just four races remaining for the Playoffs this year, the NASCAR star racer decided to go on a vacation to the Island country of St. Martin in the Caribbean Sea with Gianna Tulio. The couple spent time on the pristine beaches with clear blue water. Tulio shared some moments from their trip on Instagram.
Here's a look at some pictures shared by Tulio:

Here's how Ryan Blaney secured his place in the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs, despite an inconsistent season so far
After being crowned the 2023 Cup Series champion, Ryan Blaney began his 2024 season on a high note. The Team Penske driver clinched three Top 5 finishes in the first five races of the year (third in Busch Light Clash, second at Atlanta Motor Speedway, and third in Las Vegas).
However, the #12 racer was unable to maintain that start through the year, finishing 12 of the 25 races outside of the Top 10s, including 3 DNFs. Blaney managed to finish seven times in the Top 5s and 11 times in the Top 10s, alongside two wins at Iowa Speedway and Pocono Raceway.
The highlights of his 2024 season so far were the races at Iowa, Atlanta, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Las Vegas, Phoenix Raceway, Dover Motor Speedway, and Pocono, where he amassed maximum points (57, 52, 49, 41, 41, 40, and 40 respectively).
Despite the inconsistency this year, Blaney's two wins at Iowa and Pocono, along with a total of 12 playoff points, secured his place in the top 16. As for the Regular season, he currently stands fifth on the driver's table, behind Kyle Larson, Chase Elliott, Tyler Reddick, and Denny Hamlin
