Overview

  • At Iowa Speedway, Briscoe earned the Busch Light Pole Award with a 136.933 mph lap to claim his sixth pole of 2025 and extend a run of seven front-row starts in eleven qualifying sessions.
  • He confirmed that last August’s Bloomington Speedway event marked his final competitive sprint car start as he steps away from grassroots racing to focus on Cup duties and his growing family.
  • A victory at Pocono earlier this year secured his place in the ten-race playoffs, where he now ranks eighth in the standings on 599 points, trailing Ryan Blaney by 17.
  • Briscoe and crew chief James Small are targeting additional stage victories to accumulate more playoff bonus points during the final four races of the regular season.
  • In his first year with Joe Gibbs Racing’s No. 19 Toyota, he has collected ten top-10 finishes, eight top-5s, an average start of 10.773 and an average finish of 14.227.
