A trio of familiar faces prevailed as the 2025 National Motorsports Press Association Most Popular Driver Award winners, as Chase Elliott earned the honor in the NASCAR Cup Series, Justin Allgaier won in the Xfinity Series, and Rajah Caruth got the nod in the Craftsman Truck Series. All three are the reigning winners in their respective series.
…..
Allgaier, 39, saw his three-year streak snapped in 2022 by Noah Gragson before winning the Xfinity award the last three seasons. A JR Motorsports driver has won the Xfinity honor every year dating back to 2012.
The 23-year-old Caruth took home the Truck honor in his best national series year to date, winning at Nashville Superspeedway in the spring and placing sixth in the final standings.
