\n

The veteran driver is aiming to become the first woman to complete “The Double” \u2014 racing at the Indianapolis 500 in the afternoon before taking on NASCAR’s Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte, North Carolina, in the evening.<\/p> <\/div>\n

\n

Legge’s primary sponsor, e.l.f. Cosmetics, announced the shot at history\u00a0in a news release early Wednesday.\u00a0<\/p> <\/div>\n

\n

\u201cVery few drivers ever get the opportunity to attempt \u2018The Double,\u2019 and I do not take that opportunity lightly,\u201d Legge said in the release. \u201cThis challenge is about pushing through perceived limits, betting on yourse.l.f., taking risks and trying to do something unique. I am so incredibly grateful to e.l.f. for believing in what this moment represents and for building a community around it.\u201d<\/p> <\/div>\n

\n

Only five drivers \u2014 John Andretti, Kurt Busch, Robby Gordon, Kyle Larson and Tony Stewart \u2014 have attempted to drive in both races on the same day. Stewart, a Columbus, Indiana native, is the only driver to complete all 1,100 miles in the two races in one day. He accomplished the feat in 2001, finishing sixth at Indianapolis and third in Charlotte.\u00a0<\/p> <\/div>\n

\n

Larson attempted the double in each of the past two years, but after finishing 18th in a rain-delayed Indy 500 in 2024, he was unable to get to Charlotte before the Coca-Cola 600 was called due to rain.<\/p>
