The 2024 NASCAR Cup season marked another history in making, as Joey Logano joined the list of stock car racing elites by winning his third championship. The No:22 Ford driver won the title in his signature style, peaking at the right moment in the playoff and taking advantage of the mistakes from his rivals.

It also marked the third straight championship win for Team Penske Racing in the Cup series, an achievement only a few had got over the years.

I don’t know how to put it into words how hard it is. But I think anyone listening that has probably done anything in professional sports understands it probably as good as anybody. You put the best of the best at their profession doing the same thing with one common goal.

To see that Team Penske has done that, for one, shows that Roger is a fantastic leader. You’ve got to think of the management of (Tim) Cindric, Mike Nelson, Travis Geisler for sure. Those guys, they’re our leaders. Those are the guys that make the decisions on everything.
