    SVG is Ready to BOUNCE BACK in California

    From a three-time V8 Supercars Champion in Oceania to a dominant force in American stock car racing—Shane van Gisbergen’s journey to NASCAR is one of the greatest gambles in modern motorsport history. In this exclusive FOX Sports interview, the "Runaway Kiwi" opens up about the massive decision to leave a legendary career behind to start completely over in the United States. SVG takes us behind the scenes of his partnership with Justin Marks and Trackhouse Racing, explaining how the innovative PROJECT91 initiative changed his life forever. He also reflects on what it means to represent the iconic Red Bull livery on the grid, carrying the family No. 97, and earning his spot among NASCAR's elite drivers. While a chaotic weekend in San Diego shook up his points standing, SVG’s focus is entirely on the bigger picture. Ahead of Sonoma Raceway, Shane breaks down his transition from street courses to heavy American asphalt, his rapid progression on ovals, and why betting on himself was the best decision he ever made.
