Cruz Ramirez assumes the deuteragonist role in "Cars 3". Prior to igniting her own racing journey, Cruz thrived as both a trainer and racing technician at the Rust-eze Racing Center, nestled along the vibrant shores of Fireball Beach. Here, her expertise was instrumental in grooming the Next-Generation racers for the intense competition that awaited them.

In a captivating twist, Cruz briefly embraced the world of demolition derby racing in 2017, showcasing her versatile skills and unrelenting spirit.

Since that pivotal year, Cruz's trajectory has been intertwined with the prestigious Piston Cup Racing Series. She emerged as a formidable contender for the Dinoco team, donning the iconic number 51. Her initial appearance in the Piston Cup was a memorable substitution during the 2017 Florida 500 race, stepping in for none other than Lightning McQueen under the Rust-eze banner.

Beyond the racetrack, Cruz is a woman of many facets. During the off-season, she embarked on diverse ventures, establishing a non-profit for those in need, embracing the art of the French language, earning credentials as a certified referee, and even obtaining a license as a wedding officiant. Her determination and multifaceted nature truly make her a force to be reckoned with both on and off the track.
