The racing world’s Truck Series sensation Toni Breidinger towers over NASCAR stalwarts in brand endorsements. From Pirelli to Victoria’s Secret, her sponsorship duties grew at an impressive scale in her rookie year itself. The growing commitments forced her to reduce her on-track workload this season. However, a recent announcement from the driver implies that this might be about to change.

The young Arab-American racer is going to appear in her #55 Toyota Camry amidst the Victoria Secret World Tour. Fittingly, it will be Hall of Famer Tony Stewart‘s hometown that will witness her track skills very soon.

Toni Breidinger’s #1 Toyota Tundra graced the speedways of Kansas and Nashville this year. The 24-year-old proved her mettle with 15th and 17th-place finishes in NASCAR’s Tier 3 Series. This re-ignited her racing spirit amidst an overwhelming amount of off-track commitments, including the Victoria’s Secret World Tour. Now, champion racer and team owner Tony Stewart’s state of Indiana has beckoned her back to the unmatched thrill of motorsport.

Breidinger participated in the entire season of last year’s ARCA Menards Series. Her six impressive Top 10 finishes landed her in the 6th position at the end of the season. Juggling multiple ventures did not afford her the luxury of another full-time season, but she attempted as many races as her grueling schedule permitted. She still managed to surpass her previous performance by adding three Top 5 finishes to her resume. She particularly excelled on the Kansas Speedway with a career-high 3rd place finish at the Sioux Chief Fast Track 150.

Naturally, this heightened anticipation for her next on-track sighting in her enormous fanbase. Breidinger duly obliged with a stirring announcement on her social media platform. Stepping away from the glitz and glamor of runways, the female racing star donned her Venturini Motorsports gear for the upcoming ARCA Menards race at the Salem Speedway in Indiana.

Notably, the scale of the fashion mogul’s global platform showcased the sheer dedication behind this racing decision.

Tony Breidinger is nothing short of a new-age maverick in a competitive industry. Sportspersons take a lot of years to get one lucrative sponsorship. With a horde of enviable companies demanding the growing racer’s attention for advertisement, TV, and modeling, Breidinger has become an inspiring enigma. In 2021, she became the first non-Cup driver to make a guest appearance on Ellen DeGeneres’ award-winning show.

When improved visibility combined with Toyota’s interest in the budding racer, the brand deals multiplied at a rapid pace. She suddenly found Hot Wheels, Huda Beauty, Hair Club, and Pirelli among her endorsement partners. But securing Victoria’s Secret as her primary sponsor was an interesting amalgamation of motorsport and the fashion industry.

Consequently, Breidinger was a sight to behold at the Pink Carpet of Victoria’s Secret 2023 US World Tour. Celebrating designs from all corners of the world, the star-studded event hosted A-listers like Gigi Hadid, Brooke Shields, and Naomi Campbell. Her presence among these shimmering icons elevated her growing prestige in racing and fashion.

Unsurprisingly, the ‘VS’ symbol shined front and center in her post for the upcoming Atlanta 200 in Salem. Since that track extracted her season’s best performance with an 8th-place finish, her fans await her first checkered flag finish with bated breath.
