Reigning NASCAR Cup Series champion Ryan Blaney proposed to longtime girlfriend Gianna Tulio this past week, adding an offseason engagement ring to the premier-series title ring he earned in last month’s season finale.
Blaney and Tulio announced their engagement on social media Saturday morning with a picture from snowy Washington state. A date in the Instagram caption indicates that the proposal happened Tuesday — 12-12, which would match up nicely with Blaney’s car No. 12 for Team Penske.

The couple celebrated three years of dating in July.
Blaney scored his first Cup Series championship in November with a runner-up finish in the season-ending race at Phoenix Raceway. Blaney and Tulio were arm-in-arm just two weeks ago for the NASCAR Awards gala at the Music City Center in Nashville.
