Shane van Gisbergen is NASCAR's next superstar: 'Lightning in a bottle'

Is Shane van Gisbergen on track to be NASCAR's next international superstar? SVG scored his second win of the 2024 season at Sonoma Raceway, outdriving Austin Hill in the closing laps for the victory.
In this clip from PRN's Fast Talk, Doug Rice explains why he believes Shane van Gisbergen is on the verge of becoming a NASCAR folk hero and could be exactly what stock car racing needs. Doug says the SVG effect was apparent during the race at Sonoma, with fans cheering him on more than the rest of the field combined during the Xfinity Series event.
With a Cup Series win under his belt and the opportunity to win several more Xfinity races this year, is it only a matter of time until SVG is winning on ovals? The V8 Supercars champion has shown to enjoy American stock car racing and is a quick learner.
Plus, Doug Rice says SVG has something many NASCAR newcomers don't have: Appeal to adults. While many stock car racers enter the sport as teenagers, SVG's extensive background and racing career give him a leg up when it comes to building a loyal fanbase around the world. #NASCAR #shanevangisbergen
