NASCAR Results Today: Shane van Gisbergen stars in Mexico City as Kyle Busch suffers major playoff blow

Trackhouse Racing star Shane van Gisbergen has won the Viva Mexico 250 in Mexico City to take his first Cup Series win of the season.

It is just the second Cup victory of van Gisbergen’s career following his previous success in Chicago in 2023, with the road course specialist once again proving his worth south of the border this weekend, converting his pole position into the win.

The Kiwi has now locked himself into the 2025 Cup Series playoffs, doing so in emphatic fashion having finished over 16 seconds ahead of his nearest competitor, Christopher Bell - the largest margin of victory in the series since 2009.

Elsewhere in Mexico City, Chase Elliott came home third in the No. 9 for Hendrick Motorsports, whilst Michael McDowell and John Hunter Nemechek rounded out the top five in the No. 71 and No. 42, respectively.

It was a relatively quiet and calm ending to the race. However, the start had been anything but, with two cautions inside the opening seven laps of stage one as rain fell and caused chaos, including a six-car wreck that later saw Kyle Busch retire due to the damage that he had sustained. Busch now drops below the cut-off line in his hunt for a playoff spot this year, having climbed into the top 16 in recent weeks.

Stage one eventually went on to be won by Ryan Preece ahead of Ryan Blaney, with van Gisbergen having collected maximum points in stage two ahead of Bell.

With that said, let’s take a look at the full race results below, with stage results included.
