Blaney was relieved that the baby's arrival coincided with the NASCAR offseason. He reflected on the fortunate timing of it all during a July episode of SiriusXM NASCAR Radio:

"We're in the winter, so that takes a lot of stress off. I can't say we necessarily drew it up that way. Just kind of got fortunate on the timing of it. So hopefully, fingers crossed, it all goes to plan, and we can be kind of settled into the offseason by the time that the little one comes."

Meanwhile, Ryan Blaney sits fifth in the NASCAR Cup Series standings ahead of this week's first Round of 12 race at New Hampshire Speedway. The Team Penske driver has two regular season wins this season and is just seven points above the cut line. He has only three top-10 finishes in 12 Cup starts at the 1.06-mile oval.

Last year, Blaney qualified second and ran near the front at New Hampshire but a contact with Michael McDowell towards the end of the race sent the two drivers spinning. Blaney ended the race in 25th place.

The "Magic Mile" will host the Mobil 1 301, the first NASCAR Cup Series playoff race since 2017, this Sunday (October 21) at 2:05 pm.
