GRRL! SUMMARY:
- KATHERINE LEGGE continues her perfect record against Carson Hocevar, finishing ahead of him for the fourth consecutive race despite starting 33rd at Sonoma after missing qualifying due to brake issues. Her steady climb from deep in the field to P31 showcased the disciplined aggression that earned her first Cup points just a week earlier in Chicago, where she stunned with a P19 finish in only her fourth Cup start.
- The real fireworks came on the cooldown lap when Hocevar made an unnecessary pass just to stir up trouble, prompting LEGGE’s ice-cold radio response: “I think even I can take him.” Her crew chief’s laughter in the background perfectly captured what we’re all thinking – this woman has been quietly schooling a supposed rising star in identical equipment, beating him on road courses in Mexico City, Chicago, and now Sonoma.
- While drama unfolded elsewhere with Josh Berry spinning Hocevar in apparent retaliation for past incidents, LEGGE stayed focused on her own race, proving that consistent performance speaks louder than manufactured controversy. Her road course prowess is building a compelling case that she belongs in Cup competition, especially when she’s outrunning drivers who get far more attention despite delivering inferior results.
UPCOMING:
