Rubén García Jr. finished out the 2018 season with two wins in the K&N Pro Series East (NKNPSE) and earned his second NASCAR Peak Mexico Series Championship (NPMS). García, has played double duty running in both series for multiple years, and will now add a third series to his roster in the next coming month.
The NASCAR Whelen Euro Series (NWES) and the NPMS announced yesterday a new exciting Driver Exchange Program that will swap drivers in the two NASCAR International Series for one race each. García will take part in the NWES season opener at Valencia on April 13-14, while the 2019 Euro NASCAR Champion will enter the NPMS finale at Mexico City on November 30 – December 1.
The next three weeks will push García to compete in three series and in three countries. His race series trifecta will kick off this weekend with the season opener of the NPMS in Monterrey, Mexico. García will then head to Bristol Motor Speedway in Bristol, Tennessee with Rev Racing for the second race of the NKNPSE schedule. His European debut will close out the trifecta in Valencia, Spain, racing in the NWES in the ELITE 1 Division behind the wheel of the No. 1 Alex Caffi Motorsport Toyota.
“I am really excited about the opportunity to run three different NASCAR series in three different countries, back-to-back-to-back,” said Rubén García Jr. “I was always excited to get a try at the Euro NASCAR Series and finally the opportunity presented itself. This year, I am ready to win my third Championship in the Mexico Series and my first in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East. I can’t wait to see what the coming weeks will bring.”
García continues to look for meaningful opportunities to test his skills against his competitors in these different series. More seat time, means more exposure. García is also working on running some NASCAR Xfinity Series races later in the season.
