The Indianapolis Motor Speedway is arguably one of the most iconic race venues in all of motorsports. This is especially true for NASCAR and IndyCar, and the same can be said for Daytona. Recently, Penske driver Joey Logano spoke about the prestige of winning at such a venue. He said [https://twitter.com/SiriusXMNASCAR/status/1425076440677105680], “Indy is as big [as Daytona], if not bigger. I feel like it’s a track that everyone in the world wants to say they’ve won at. In the history of the Brickyard, it’s incredible. All you have to do is go through the museum when you’re there one day, and say ‘Wow! This is a sacred place’. “Whether you’re on the oval or you’re on the road course or in a stock car, IndyCar or a tricycle, you want to say you’ve won at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.” JOEY LOGANO IS LOOKING FORWARD TO THE REST OF THE SEASON Obviously, the Team Penske driver will want to triumph at the track. To many American racing drivers, there is no bigger honor than to win the race and kiss the iconic bricks. While IndyCar has its famous Indianapolis 500, NASCAR’s marquee event at the track is the Brickyard 400.

Mandatory Credit: Ryan Hunt-USA TODAY Sports Interestingly, the event only made its NASCAR debut in 1994, but the track is still steeped in history. While Logano surely knows what it means to win at Indianapolis, he is yet to experience it for himself. The only Team Penske winner till date is Brad Keselowski in 2018. Of course, the grid for this weekend’s race has not been released yet, but Logano will be in the mix. However, he will have to contend with his teammates, the Joe Gibbs Racing [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/joe-gibbs-racing/] drivers and the Hendrick Motorsports [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/hendrick-motorsports/] drivers for the win.

Team Penske driver Joey Logano admitted that winning at the Indianapolis Motor
Speedway is a special feeling in NASCAR and he wants it.

<h2>History</h2>
The Brickyard 400 is a yearly 400-mile NASCAR Cup Series race held at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The debut race was held in 1994. The Brickyard 400 was the only race other than the Indianapolis 500 to be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway since 1916.

The first Brickyard 400 was NASCAR's most-attended occasion. It drew an expected audience of 250,000. Brickyard 400 is also among the highest paying races.

From 1994 to 2017, the occasion used to run on the 1st weekend of August or in the July end. In 2018 and 2019, NASCAR moved the race toward the end of the week after Labor Day.

<h2>Track Origin</h2>
The word "Brickyard" is a reference to the moniker truly used for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. At the point when the race-course opened in August 1909, the track surface was made from stone and tar. That surface caused various deadly mishaps.

The track was then repaved with 3.2 million blocks. After some time the blocks were cleared over with asphalt. Now just a one-yard segment of blocks toward the beginning/finish line stays uncovered.
<h2>Past Winners</h2>
The names of the victors of the Brickyard 400 are recorded on the Trophy. It is housed at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum. Jeff Gordon won the debut Brickyard 400 on August 6, 1994. He is the best driver throughout the entire existence of the race. He holds a record of five triumphs and three pole positions. Gordon additionally holds the most laps finished, most laps led.

Jimmie Johnson has won the Brickyard 400 four times for Hendrick Motorsports. Hendrick Motorsports has been the best team with ten victories and five pole positions.
<h2>Name Changes</h2>
From 1994-2004, the name of the race was Brickyard 400. From 2005 to 2009, the race was known as the Allstate 400 at the Brickyard under a naming rights agreement with Allstate. From 2012 to 2016, Crown Royal was the title sponsor of the race.

The 2020 race was known as the Big Machine Hand Sanitizer 400 at the Brickyard.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Joey Logano?</b></h2>
Joey Logano has cemented his place as one of the greats in NASCAR with two Cup Series victories so far in his career. The Team Penske star most recently won his second Cup championship in 2022. Logano has taken part in more than 500 Cup races throughout his illustrious career and come out victorious on 32 occasions.

Nick-named 'Sliced Bread', Logano was prolific in the NASCAR Xfinity Series as well, winning 30 out of 176 races. It's safe to say that with such accolades to his name, the 33-year-old has managed to build himself a substantial reputation as a revered driver.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Loganoâ€™s Early Life</b></h2>
Joey Logano, the son of Deborah B. and Thomas J. Logano, was born in Middletown, Connecticut. Thomas, his father, is of Italian descent. In addition to racing, Joey played ice hockey as a youth. To advance his racing career, they eventually relocated to Georgia from their original home in Portland. Because of his early professional success as a racer, he was given the moniker "sliced bread" at the beginning of his career. He has a sister named Danielle Logano who is a professional figure skater.
<p style="text-align: left">Joey's parents encouraged him to pursue his interest in racing when he was in elementary school. Debbie, his mother, quickly concluded that the young racer needed homeschooling to continue his education. Logano's home-based instruction allowed him the flexibility he needed to hone the abilities and discipline required to become a professional racer.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Loganoâ€™s Wife and Children</b></h2>
Logano confirmed his engagement to Brittany Baca, his childhood sweetheart, on November 13, 2013. He revealed on Twitter, in 2014, that they would get married during the NASCAR off-season. The couple eventually tied the knot on December 13, 2014. In January 2018, they declared the birth of their first child, a son named Hudson Joseph Logano. Soon after on May 7, 2020, they welcomed their second son, Jameson Jett Logano. In February 2022, their first daughter and third child were born, who was named Emilia Love Logano.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Loganoâ€™s Net Worth 2024</b></h2>
When it comes to net worth, it is safe to say that Joey Logano has done quite well for himself. According to Zac Johnson, the former Cup Series champion has a net worth of a whopping $44 million. It is no surprise considering the fact that he is one of the most successful drivers in one of the world's biggest motorsports competitions. Annually, the Team Penske star makes about $9 million as per Rookie Road, making him one of the highest-paid drivers in NASCAR today.

It's not just racing that pays Logano's bills. The 2022 Cup Series champion has several sponsorships and endorsements that go a long way in making him richer as well. There are some pretty big names supporting Logano which include the likes of Coca-Cola, Shell, Pennzoil, and Ford Performance to name a few. As per his official website, Sliced Bread has 19 sponsors.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Loganoâ€™s Career Timeline</b></h2>
Joey Logano has been a racer ever since he was just six years old. Starting his motorsports journey with quarter-midget racing, the driver soon moved on to greener pastures. In his teenage racing career, Joey Logano competed in the FASCAR Pro Truck Series, USAR Hooters Pro Cup Series, NASCAR West Series, and the Arca Menards Series among others.

Then, at the age of 18, Logano finally made his debut in the NASCAR Xfinity Series in 2008 and won his third race in the promotion at the Kentucky Speedway.

He also made his Cup Series debut the same year racing in just five races, two of which saw him suffer a DNQ. Joey Logano finally made his full-time Cup Series debut in 2009 and finished 20th. However, his highest-ever finish came in 2018 and 2022 when he clinched the Cup series championship.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Loganoâ€™s Partnerships and Brand Endorsements</b></h2>
Being the holder of so many impressive accolades, getting sponsors isn't the hardest of jobs for Joey Logano. Recently, his team signed a multi-year deal with Hunt Brothers Pizza. It will see the leading convenience store pizza brand sponsor the illustrious Team Penske which won the last two NASCAR Cup Series championships.
<p style="text-align: left">Logano and The Good Feet Store have also signed a contract recently. This company will leverage its connection with the two-time Cup Series winner to promote foot health. It manufactures and stores custom-fit arch supports for every foot and lifestyle. The driver of the #22 also has long-standing partnerships with some industry heavyweights Shell-Pennzoil and Coca-Cola.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Â Joey Loganoâ€™s NASCAR Career Stats</b></h2>
Joey Logano has had an abundance of victory lane visits throughout his career. In the Cup Series alone, the driver has seized 32 wins with 274 Top-10s and 28 pole positions. In the Xfinity series, the driver has shone bright with 30 wins, 143 Top-10s, and 36 pole wins.

With 8,476 laps led across the three top divisions of NASCAR, the driver boasts an average finish of 13.99. His average start sits at 11.7. Now that's what we can call a decorated career!
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Loganoâ€™s Records</b></h2>
Joey Logano's talent behind the wheel has truly come off as unparalleled at times! Apart from a two-time sweep of the NASCAR Cup title, the driver has successfully showcased his dominance very often. In 2015, fans were left awestruck when the driver won all three races of the Round of 12 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, Kansas Speedway, and the Talladega Motor Speedway.

But his list of records doesn't end there. Joey Logano scripted history in 2016 when, two days before his 26th birthday, he won the highly revered All-Star Race beating the likes of iconic drivers that include Brad Keselowski (P2), Dale Earnhardt Jr (P3) and Tony Stewart (P20, DNF).
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Loganoâ€™s Achievements and Accomplishments</b></h2>
Despite not being one of the older drivers, Joey Logano has accomplishments anyone would be proud of. The Team Penske superstar is a 2-time winner of the NASCAR Cup Series and that's just for starters. He became the youngest race winner in the Xfinity Series at 18 years and 21 days. He also became the youngest Cup Series race winner at 19 years and 35 days. Logano was the 2015 Daytona 500 winner, the 2016 All-Star race winner, the 2009 Cup Series Rookie of the Year and has also been named in NASCAR's 75 Greatest Drivers list.

Joey Logano, along with Roger Penske, was also invited to the White House in 2019 by then-president Donald Trump. Logano had won the 2018 Cup Series championship just a few months earlier.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Loganoâ€™s Charity and Foundation</b></h2>
Apart from being a racer, Joey Logano has a charity foundation that helps out children and young adults when life deals them a tough hand. The Joey Logano Foundation strives to encourage people to lead generous lives and makes investments in organizations that provide children and young adults in need with second chances. It has given more than $5,000,000 to organizations nationwide since 2013 to help children and young adults, particularly those residing in the foster care system, through trying moments in their lives.

The foundation's objectives are to use a platform like motorsports to raise awareness about children and young adults facing tough circumstances and to invest in programs that assist them.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Loganoâ€™s Fight with Auto-immune Disease</b></h2>
Life has not always been fair to the 2-time Cup Series champion. Logano was diagnosed withÂ Alopecia areata, an autoimmune disease that targets hair follicles, in September 2019. Although there are no physical side effects or health hazards associated with the condition, Logano has frequently made jokes about the patches of baldness or thinning hair it causes. Following his second NASCAR Cup Series victory in December 2022, Logano finally received effective treatment.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Joey Logano Controversies</strong></h2>
Joey Logano may give off the vibe of a fun-loving individual but he has had his fair share of altercations and they have been brutal. In 2010, the 2-time Cup Series champion was spun around on track in Pocono by Kevin Harvick, and he did not hold back afterward. He charged towards Harvick but was held back. In the post-race interview, Logano said, <em>"It's probably not his fault, you know. His wife wears the firesuit in his family, tells him what to do.â€</em>

He and Kyle Busch got into a huge brawl as well in 2017 after Logano spun the then-Joe Gibbs Racing driver in Vegas. Busch got his 'Rowdy' persona on as he went after Logano that day and it was an ugly scene. Things have calmed down between them now but the 2 former Cup Series champions do share the occasional banter at times.

Joey Logano even took a dig at fans earlier in 2023, calling them spoilt as NASCAR was one of the few sports where they could meet and interact with the drivers a little bit before the races.Â <em>"Our fans are spoiled! And I love our race fans, but think about other sports for a second? When are you going to meet an NFL player? Can you access an NFL player, anytime, like three hours before the game? NO!"</em>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Logano in Media</b></h2>
Joey Logano and Kyle Busch were the guest hosts of the October 26, 2009 episode of WWE's Monday Night RAW. The two were in the ring with pro-wrestling legends Big Show and Chris Jericho. The Team Penske star has appeared in various TV shows and movies as well like Logan Lucky, Sharknado 3, The Glades, Lab Rats, and Race For The Championship. He has also lent his voice to Milo Murphy's Law.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Joey Logano's Social Media Accounts</b></h2>
Joey Logano is fairly active on his social media accounts like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. However, a lot of his posts are promotional videos rather than personal ones.

Joey Logano

Who is Joey Logano? Joey Logano has cemented his place as one of the greats in NASCAR with two Cup Series victories so far in his career. The Team Penske star most recently won his second Cup championship in 2022. Logano has taken part in more than 500 Cup races throughout his illustrious career and come out victorious on 32 occasions. Nick-named &#8216;Sliced Bread&#8217;, Logano was prolific in the NASCAR Xfinity Series as well, winning 30 out of 176 races. It&#8217;s safe to say that with such accolades to his name, the 33-year-old has managed to build himself a substantial reputation as a revered driver.

Mandatory Credit: John David Mercer-USA TODAY Sports Joey Loganoâ€™s Early Life Joey Logano, the son of Deborah B. and Thomas J. Logano, was born in Middletown, Connecticut. Thomas, his father, is of Italian descent. In addition to racing, Joey played ice hockey as a youth. To advance his racing career, they eventually relocated to Georgia from their original home in Portland. Because of his early professional success as a racer, he was given the moniker &#8220;sliced bread&#8221; at the beginning of his career. He has a sister named Danielle Logano who is a professional figure skater. Joey&#8217;s parents encouraged him to pursue his interest in racing when he was in elementary school. Debbie, his mother, quickly concluded that the young racer needed homeschooling to continue his education. Logano&#8217;s home-based instruction allowed him the flexibility he needed to hone the abilities and discipline required to become a professional racer. Joey Loganoâ€™s Wife and Children Logano confirmed his engagement to Brittany Baca, his childhood sweetheart, on November 13, 2013. He revealed on Twitter, in 2014, that they would get married during the NASCAR off-season. The couple eventually tied the knot on December 13, 2014. In January 2018, they declared the birth of their first child, a son named Hudson Joseph Logano. Soon after on May 7, 2020, they welcomed their second son, Jameson Jett Logano. In February 2022, their first daughter and third child were born, who was named Emilia Love Logano.

According to Zac Johnson, the former Cup Series champion has a net worth of a whopping $44 million. It is no surprise considering the fact that he is one of the most successful drivers in one of the world&#8217;s biggest motorsports competitions. Annually, the Team Penske star makes about $9 million as per Rookie Road, making him one of the highest-paid drivers in NASCAR today. It&#8217;s not just racing that pays Logano&#8217;s bills. The 2022 Cup Series champion has several sponsorships and endorsements that go a long way in making him richer as well. There are some pretty big names supporting Logano which include the likes of Coca-Cola, Shell, Pennzoil, and Ford Performance to name a few. As per his official website, Sliced Bread has 19 sponsors. Joey Loganoâ€™s Career Timeline Joey Logano has been a racer ever since he was just six years old. Starting his motorsports journey with quarter-midget racing, the driver soon moved on to greener pastures. In his teenage racing career, Joey Logano competed in the FASCAR Pro Truck Series, USAR Hooters Pro Cup Series, NASCAR West Series, and the Arca Menards Series among others. Then, at the age of 18, Logano finally made his debut in the NASCAR Xfinity Series in 2008 and won his third race in the promotion at the Kentucky Speedway. He also made his Cup Series debut the same year racing in just five races, two of which saw him suffer a DNQ. Joey Logano finally made his full-time Cup Series debut in 2009 and finished 20th. However, his highest-ever finish came in 2018 and 2022 when he clinched the Cup series championship. Joey Loganoâ€™s Partnerships and Brand Endorsements Being the holder of so many impressive accolades, getting sponsors isn&#8217;t the hardest of jobs for Joey Logano. Recently, his team signed a multi-year deal with Hunt Brothers Pizza. It will see the leading convenience store pizza brand sponsor the illustrious Team Penske which won the last two NASCAR Cup Series championships. Logano and The Good Feet Store have also signed a contract recently. This company will leverage its connection with the two-time Cup Series winner to promote foot health. It manufactures and stores custom-fit arch supports for every foot and lifestyle. The driver of the #22 also has long-standing partnerships with some industry heavyweights Shell-Pennzoil and Coca-Cola.

In the Cup Series alone, the driver has seized 32 wins with 274 Top-10s and 28 pole positions. In the Xfinity series, the driver has shone bright with 30 wins, 143 Top-10s, and 36 pole wins. With 8,476 laps led across the three top divisions of NASCAR, the driver boasts an average finish of 13.99. His average start sits at 11.7. Now that&#8217;s what we can call a decorated career! Joey Loganoâ€™s Records Joey Logano&#8217;s talent behind the wheel has truly come off as unparalleled at times! Apart from a two-time sweep of the NASCAR Cup title, the driver has successfully showcased his dominance very often. In 2015, fans were left awestruck when the driver won all three races of the Round of 12 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, Kansas Speedway, and the Talladega Motor Speedway. But his list of records doesn&#8217;t end there. Joey Logano scripted history in 2016 when, two days before his 26th birthday, he won the highly revered All-Star Race beating the likes of iconic drivers that include Brad Keselowski (P2), Dale Earnhardt Jr (P3) and Tony Stewart (P20, DNF). Joey Loganoâ€™s Achievements and Accomplishments Despite not being one of the older drivers, Joey Logano has accomplishments anyone would be proud of. The Team Penske superstar is a 2-time winner of the NASCAR Cup Series and that&#8217;s just for starters. He became the youngest race winner in the Xfinity Series at 18 years and 21 days. He also became the youngest Cup Series race winner at 19 years and 35 days. Logano was the 2015 Daytona 500 winner, the 2016 All-Star race winner, the 2009 Cup Series Rookie of the Year and has also been named in NASCAR&#8217;s 75 Greatest Drivers list. Joey Logano, along with Roger Penske, was also invited to the White House in 2019 by then-president Donald Trump. Logano had won the 2018 Cup Series championship just a few months earlier. Joey Loganoâ€™s Charity and Foundation Apart from being a racer, Joey Logano has a charity foundation that helps out children and young adults when life deals them a tough hand. The Joey Logano Foundation strives to encourage people to lead generous lives and makes investments in organizations that provide children and young adults in need with second chances. It has given more than $5,000,000 to organizations nationwide since 2013 to help children and young adults, particularly those residing in the foster care system, through trying moments in their lives. The foundation&#8217;s objectives are to use a platform like motorsports to raise awareness about children and young adults facing tough circumstances and to invest in programs that assist them. Joey Loganoâ€™s Fight with Auto-immune Disease Life has not always been fair to the 2-time Cup Series champion. Logano was diagnosed withÂ Alopecia areata, an autoimmune disease that targets hair follicles, in September 2019. Although there are no physical side effects or health hazards associated with the condition, Logano has frequently made jokes about the patches of baldness or thinning hair it causes. Following his second NASCAR Cup Series victory in December 2022, Logano finally received effective treatment.

(Photo by Jamie Squire/Getty Images) Joey Logano Controversies Joey Logano may give off the vibe of a fun-loving individual but he has had his fair share of altercations and they have been brutal. In 2010, the 2-time Cup Series champion was spun around on track in Pocono by Kevin Harvick, and he did not hold back afterward. He charged towards Harvick but was held back. In the post-race interview, Logano said, &#8220;It&#8217;s probably not his fault, you know. His wife wears the firesuit in his family, tells him what to do.â€ He and Kyle Busch got into a huge brawl as well in 2017 after Logano spun the then-Joe Gibbs Racing driver in Vegas. Busch got his &#8216;Rowdy&#8217; persona on as he went after Logano that day and it was an ugly scene. Things have calmed down between them now but the 2 former Cup Series champions do share the occasional banter at times. Joey Logano even took a dig at fans earlier in 2023, calling them spoilt as NASCAR was one of the few sports where they could meet and interact with the drivers a little bit before the races.Â &#8220;Our fans are spoiled! And I love our race fans, but think about other sports for a second? When are you going to meet an NFL player? Can you access an NFL player, anytime, like three hours before the game? NO!&#8221; Joey Logano in Media Joey Logano and Kyle Busch were the guest hosts of the October 26, 2009 episode of WWE&#8217;s Monday Night RAW. The two were in the ring with pro-wrestling legends Big Show and Chris Jericho. The Team Penske star has appeared in various TV shows and movies as well like Logan Lucky, Sharknado 3, The Glades, Lab Rats, and Race For The Championship. He has also lent his voice to Milo Murphy&#8217;s Law.
