Toni Breidinger, who has seen her star rise with a slew of partnerships over the last few seasons including a modeling career with Victoria’s Secret, will move to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series full-time in 2025. Breidinger will pilot the No. 5 Toyota Tundra for TRICON Garage.
According to a press release from the race team, Raising Cane’s, CELSIUS, and Sunoco will serve as the primary sponsorship partners for Breidinger’s rookie campaign in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series next season. Breidinger will join Corey Heim, and Tanner Gray as the full-time TRICON Garage drivers in 2025.
For the 25-year-old racer, going full-time in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series is a “pinch-me” moment.
“Racing full-time with TRICON is a dream for me. It’s been a 15-year process to get here but I’m so excited for this moment and ready to capitalize on it,” said Breidinger. “I wouldn’t have this opportunity if it wasn’t for Toyota, Raising Cane’s, CELSIUS, and Sunoco. I’m beyond grateful to have these partners and team in my corner to take this next step in my career.”
TRICON Garage says official crew chief pairing announcements for its 2025 trucks as well as additional part-time driver announcements will be forthcoming.
Breidinger had a solid 2024 campaign in the ARCA Menards Series ranks as she captured 11 top-10 finishes in 20 starts, and finished the season fourth in the championship standings. Breidinger secured a 15th-place finish in her NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series debut in 2023, the best finish by a female driver on debut in series history. Heading into 2025, she has a total of four starts in the series, all with TRICON Garage.
The native of San Francisco, California cut her racing teeth in USAC, where she captured 19 victories.
In addition to her modeling career with Victoria’s Secret, Breidinger has also done modeling campaigns for GAP, Free People, and she is set to be in the upcoming Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue this year.
