GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • KATHERINE LEGGE is making her 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series debut at Rockingham Speedway, piloting Jordan Anderson Racing’s No. 32 car. She’s scheduled for seven combined Xfinity and Cup races this year, marking her continued presence in NASCAR’s top divisions after transitioning from her extensive open-wheel racing background.
  • Her return comes after a controversial Cup Series debut at Phoenix where she spun out twice and ended teammate Daniel Suarez’s race, creating scrutiny around her NASCAR adaptation. The incident highlighted the challenges faced by drivers transitioning between different racing disciplines and the intense pressure of performing at NASCAR’s highest levels.
  • LEGGE’s Rockingham appearance puts her alongside other controversial drivers making headlines, as the racing community continues to debate standards for conduct and opportunity in NASCAR’s developmental series. Her seven-race schedule suggests teams still see value in her extensive racing experience despite the Phoenix incident.
