Andres Perez de Lara, a rookie contender in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, will be joining forces with DGM Racing to make his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut on June 14 at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, his hometown race in Mexico City, Mexico.

The 2024 champion of the ARCA Menards Series will be piloting the No. 91 Chevrolet for DGM Racing, a family-owned and -operated NASCAR Xfinity Series operation which is based out of Lake Wales, Florida.

Infinitum and Telcel, long-time supporters of Mexico City, Mexico-native and current sponsors of the No. 77 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet Silverado RST that Perez drives in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, will serve as the main sponsors for the effort.

The Chilango 150 will mark the reunion of the NASCAR Xfinity Series and the famed Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, after the second-tier series competed at the racetrack from 2006 to 2008. Now, on the weekend of June 14, along with the Xfinity Series, the NASCAR Cup Series will be running its first-ever race in Mexico.

Perez will be joining multi-time NASCAR Cup Series race-winner Daniel Suarez as the only two Mexican-born drivers currently entered in the NASCAR Xfinity Series event at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez.

The 20-year-old driver will join Adrian Fernandez, Jorge Goeters, and Michel Jourdain as just some of the Mexican-born drivers who competed in a NASCAR National Series event at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez.

Through the opening 11 events of the 2025 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series campaign, Perez currently sits 19th in series point standings, with a single top-10 finish coming earlier this season at Martinsville Speedway, with a seventh-place finish.

Perez joins a multi-driver lineup for DGM Racing in 2025 that includes full-timer Ryan Ellis and several part-timers, including Myatt Snider, CJ McLaughlin, Jesse Iwuji, and Josh Bilicki.
