They added,

"The stock car racing driver is the first female Arab-American driver to participate in any NASCAR national series event and has quickly risen to become one of NASCAR’s most prominent figures as a history-making competitor, a trailblazer for women in the male-dominated sport, and a burgeoning influence in the fashion and modeling industries."

Reviewing Toni Breidinger's 2024 NASCAR season

Venturini driver Toni Breidinger's 2024 season was an impressive one. The Arab-American driver scored 837 points this year and finished 4th in the driver's standing. She finished the season 119 points behind ARCA Menards champion Andres Perez de Lara.

The 25-yo also ran at the Daytona International Speedway in the NASCAR Truck Series this year with Tricon Garage. However, a couple of accidents during the race meant she could only muster a T27 finish in the race.

Toni Breidinger amassed ten top-10 finishes and was one of the consistent drivers throughout. She is determined to build upon an impressive season and come back stronger next season. She shared her thoughts in a social media post after the season ended, with the caption:

"Finished out the season with @SunocoRacing. 4th overall in points. grateful for this season and all the ups and downs that came with it. Gonna get dialed in for 2025 during this off season!"
