Josh Berry's No. 4 SHR Ford shows Indy love with Caitlin Clark scheme

Josh Berry and the No. 4 Stewart-Haas Racing team will run a special paint scheme when the Cup Series heads to Indianapolis Motor Speedway for Sunday’s return of the Brickyard 400 (2:30 p.m. ET, NBC, IMS Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio, NBC Sports App).

The Cup Series rookie, with help from partner Panini Trading Cards, will have WNBA rookie and Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark riding on the hood of his Ford Mustang Dark Horse as NASCAR’s best take back the oval at Indianapolis after running three years in the infield road-course configuration.

Clark rose to fame in the women’s basketball world during her college career playing for the Iowa Hawkeyes. She made multiple deep runs in the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament before becoming the first overall pick in the 2024 WNBA draft, where she now carries her No. 22 with the Fever.

The Des Moines, Iowa native continues to break records at the professional level, recently becoming the first WNBA rookie to record a triple-double with 19 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists in an 83-78 victory over the New York Liberty earlier this month.

For Berry, this will be his first time on the 2.5-mile oval at Indianapolis. So far through his rookie season, Berry has two top fives and four top-10 finishes, with his two best results to date coming at Darlington Raceway and New Hampshire Motor Speedway, where he finished third in each.
