Summary

  • Trackhouse Racing said Kevin Magnussen will drive its No. 91 Chevrolet at next month’s San Diego street race on Naval Base Coronado, marking the former Formula 1 driver’s NASCAR debut.
  • The entry comes through Trackhouse’s Project 91 program, which places stars from other racing series in Cup cars and previously featured Kimi Raikkonen in 2022 and Helio Castroneves in the 2025 Daytona 500.
  • Magnussen left F1 in 2024 after stints with McLaren, Renault and Haas, and now races in IMSA for Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing and in the FIA World Endurance Championship for WRT.
  • San Diego’s street layout could suit him: Magnussen brings extensive road-course experience, though he will face strong in-house competition from Trackhouse regulars including Shane van Gisbergen, Connor Zilisch and Ross Chastain.
