Katherine Legge adds Brickyard 400 to 2025 NASCAR schedule

Katherine Legge has once again expanded her 2025 NASCAR schedule, adding the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. She will again pilot the No. 78 Live Fast Motorsports Chevrolet in her fifth Cup race of the year. 

The effort will be backed by Desnuda Organic Tequila and Indiana-based venture studio Droplight.

Legge was already planning to run the No. 32 Jordan Anderson Racing Chevrolet in Saturday's Xfinity race. She has plenty of experience at the IMS oval, but not in stock cars. Legge has four starts in the Indianapolis 500 between 2012 and 2024, finishing as high as 22nd.

Legge has also removed the Richmond Raceway Cup race from her 2025 plans, replacing it with the Las Vegas Motor Speedway event on October 12th. That is expected to be her final start of the 2025 season, ending the year with 13 starts between the Cup and Xfinity Series.

The IMSA GTD winner made her Cup debut at Phoenix in March, but that ended in a crash. By starting that race, she became the first woman to run a Cup race since Danica Patrick took part in the 2018 Daytona 500. Her best result came at the Chicago Street Course, finishing 19th after beating 23XI Racing's Corey Heim for the final open spot on the grid in qualifying. She also ran the road course races in Mexico City and at Sonoma Raceway.

Legge also has five starts in the Xfinity Series this year, but four DNFs due to crashes so far. In the one race she did reach the checkered flag, Legge finished 32nd. She will be aiming to improve on that in a big way when the series rolls into IMS next weekend.
