KATHERINE LEGGE Returns to NASCAR Cup Series at Watkins Glen with e.l.f.

May 4, 2026

• KATHERINE LEGGE makes her eighth career Cup start at Watkins Glen on May 10, backed by e.l.f. Cosmetics. The 45-year-old Brit previously won the GTD class at The Glen in 2017 IMSA competition.
• After a challenging Phoenix debut with a Lap 2 spin, LEGGE became the first woman to start a Cup race since DANICA PATRICK in 2018. She quickly adapted, qualifying into Chicago’s 40-car field over prospect Corey Heim.
• LEGGE posted steady improvement throughout 2025, earning her first top-20 at Chicago Street Course with 19th, then delivering a career-best 17th at the Brickyard 400 in Indianapolis last July.
• Following Watkins Glen, LEGGE shifts focus to the Indianapolis 500, where she’ll pilot the No. 11 Chevrolet for A.J. Foyt Racing with e.l.f. Cosmetics continuing as primary sponsor in her IndyCar program.
