As Toni Breidinger takes up a full-time racing role in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, Venturini Motorsports has signed the emerging talent Isabella Robusto to step up as her replacement in the ARCA Menards Series.
Isabella Robusto brings to the table a strong pedigree in the ARCA Menards Series, where she has honed her skills over recent years.
Commenting on her upcoming move, Robusto explained in a press release from the team:
“I’m excited for this incredible opportunity to return to Venturini and run full-time for a championship in the ARCA Menards Series. I can’t thank Toyota and VMS enough for putting me in this position.

Breidinger’s tenure with VMS also included 27 career top-10 finishes, a strong record for female drivers in the series.
As Robusto prepares for the 2025 season, her resolve is clear:
