The NASCAR Cup Series Championship in Avondale, Arizona, brought together two unlikely stars on Sunday, Euphoria actress Sydney Sweeney and WNBA standout Sophie Cunningham.
The pair met at the event and posed for a photo that quickly went viral after Cunningham posted it with a playful caption.
Cunningham, who served as the event’s honorary pace car driver, shared the photo on X alongside Sweeney, who waved the checkered flag to start the race. Her caption instantly caught attention.

The Indiana Fever guard’s lighthearted remark sparked laughter online, referencing Sweeney’s recent viral look from Variety’s Power of Women event while poking fun at herself.
Fans were quick to praise Cunningham’s humor and confidence, calling her “the funniest player in the WNBA.”
Both stars turned heads at the NASCAR finale, which saw Kyle Larson claim the 2025 championship title. But while the race delivered plenty of excitement, it was the unexpected Sweeney–Cunningham crossover that stole much of the spotlight.
