Trackhouse Racing driver Shane van Gisbergen was recently featured in a post-race interview with ASAP Sports on August 10, 2025, at Watkins Glen International. During the interview, Gisbergen opened up about Bubba Wallace and Daniel Suarez's gesture after he won the 90-lap race.The #88 Chevy Camaro ZL1 driver had a decent qualifying session at 'The Glen' and began the race from P2 with a best lap time of 71.99 seconds and a top speed of 122.51 mph. Gisbergen then fell a few spots during stages one and two of the race. But things changed for him during the final stage, and he took the lead along with his fourth win of this season.Shane van Gisbergen's fellow drivers, 23XI Racing driver Bubba Wallace and his Trackhouse Racing driver Daniel Suarez, were impressed by his run and went to the victory lane to congratulate him. Reflecting on the same, the interviewer questioned the New Zealand-based driver:"I saw Bubba and Daniel also came to Victory Lane to congratulate you as well. While you're still kicking their butts on the racetrack, they also still respect you enough to come give you those kudos. What is that like managing that balance as a competitor?"The Auckland native gave a subtle reply and stated:"Yeah, well, that's how you want it to be with everyone. You want it to be respectful but hard racing.""It pays back. Like in the third stint, a couple of people let me go, and they're guys I'd say I'm sort of friendly with. I would do the same for them, and I do do it on the ovals when they come at me with a big speed difference. It's just respect you build up with people and friendships, and yeah, pretty much everyone in the garage is nice guys and I enjoy racing all of them," he added.
