2023 NASCAR Pinty's Series
The topic of this article may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline. (September 2023) |
The 2023 NASCAR Pinty's Series was the seventeenth season of the Pinty's Series, the national stock car racing series in Canada sanctioned by NASCAR. The season began with a race at Sunset Speedway on May 13 and concluded with the race at Delaware Speedway on September 24.
Treyten Lapcevich won his first Pinty's Series championship after winning seven races during the season. Marc-Antoine Camirand, who entered the season as the defending champion, finished second in the final standings behind Lapcevich. Alex Tagliani finished third in the championship.
Treyten Lapcevich is the younger brother of Cayden Lapcevich, the 2016 NASCAR Pinty's Series champion. After Treyten's championship in 2023, they became the first brothers to both win Pinty's Series championships.
This was also the last season of the series with the NASCAR Pinty's Series name as NASCAR decided to move to a premier partner title sponsorship model for its Canadian Series, with the series' new name being the NASCAR Canada Series with Pinty's staying on as a premier partner along with Evirum becoming another premier partner.[1]
