Heim overcomes Hamlin and Bell at Indianapolis
The closing stages of the Brickyard 400 saw Heim move past Denny Hamlin to take the lead.
The result highlights a strong performance for 23XI Racing, as both the driver and the team owner were positioned at the front of the field during the final laps of the event at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Historical context for part-time drivers
The achievement is rare within the modern era of NASCAR.
With two wins in 15 starts, Heim maintains a high conversion rate of victories per start, which is uncommon for drivers not embedded in a full-time championship pursuit.
