Fletcher Nips Workman by 0.003 Seconds in Martinsville MX-5 Cup Finale

A fan-selected inversion set up a two-lap sprint after a late red flag.

Overview

  • Jeremy Fletcher edged Westin Workman in a green-white-checker finish, with timing showing a 0.003-second margin at the line.
  • The win awarded $25,000 and the traditional Martinsville clock to the newly crowned 2025 series champion.
  • A stage-break draw inverted the top seven positions, reshaping the order before the final run to the flag.
  • Fastest qualifier Nathan Nicholson lost pole in pre-race technical inspection, charged to the lead late, then slipped to 12th after the decisive scramble.
  • Contact between Ethan Tovo and Earl Bamber triggered a red flag and ended both drivers’ races, and the result wrapped the 2025 season with 2026 scheduled to start January 21 at Daytona.
