The 20-year-old influencer took every opportunity to record content during Sunday’s Ally 400 event, sharing a slew of pictures and videos of herself taking in the sights and sounds of the event.
Going full on the Nashville theme, Olivia donned a crop top corset and tiny Daisy Duke shorts for the sporting event at the Nashville Superspeedway, which she paired with tan cowboy boots.
The blonde beauty appeared on Nascar’s Instagram feed and posed alongside racer Chase Elliott, 27, during the event.

Other pictures showed her hanging out in the field with Chase and glancing inside his car.
The Louisiana State University student could also be seen cozying up with the race car ride behind the scenes near competitors’ trailers, as seen in one of his stories, shared again by Nascar.
Fans flocked to the comments on Nascar’s Instagram to gush over the social media starlet.
“I’ve never seen a happier chase,” someone quipped.
“Bro, live my dream,” chimed in another as Chase posed arm in arm with Olivia.
Although many other commentators speculated that Chase’s proximity to the gymnast before the race would alone be the motivation to win the Ally 400 Cup, his rival Ross Chastain ultimately took first place.
For his part, Chase finished fourth in the 400-mile race.
Earlier this week, Olivia shared several snaps of her cheering on the LSU baseball team at Charles Schwab Field Omaha Stadium in Nebraska.

The Florida Gators are currently in a head-to-head with the LSU Tigers in the 2023 Men’s College World Series with the deciding game three taking place tonight.
During her performance at the baseball game, the TikTok star attracted a large crowd of admirers keen to get a glimpse of the gymnast – some fellow guests even asked for her autographs.
Video from the sporting event showed crowds of young men gathering around the area where Olivia was sitting – a scene reminiscent of the mob that swarmed the star and her fellow gymnasts at a competition in Utah in January.
At the time, Olivia made a personal request to her fans on Twitter, urging them to be “respectful” of their fellow gymnasts.
“I will always appreciate and love the support from you guys but when you come to a meeting I would like to ask you to be respectful to the other gymnasts and the gymnastics community as we are just doing our job,” she wrote.
In an interview with the Today show a few days later, Olivia — who is known online as Livvy — opened up about the security measures LSU had to take after the incident, while revealing it wasn’t the first time she’d found them himself to the fans in a “scary” situation.
“They gave us some new rules just to protect us: we are not allowed to go into the stands after the competitions and we have a new security person who travels with us,” explained Olivia.
The incident of the “rude” fans trying to “bully” Olivia at a meetup wasn’t the first time her coaches have raised concerns about her safety — the Today show revealed that LSU last year “because of a incident” went to the police. , but did not share any further details about what or who was involved.
Olivia has gone on to become one of the highest paid athletes on social media, earning a whopping seven figures a year thanks to her online fame
However, Olivia voiced her fears at the “threatening” comments she’s receiving on social media, explaining, “There are occasional people who come forward and that’s a bit worrying.”
Olivia also caused a stir last month with her debut in Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit issue, which she shot in Puerto Rico.
The New Jersey native boasts 4.2 million Instagram followers in addition to her TikTok following of 7.5 million — making her one of the most influential collegiate athletes, according to social media metrics. ‘
She’s also one of the highest-paid NCAA athletes, thanks to various sponsorships, including American Eagle, Forever 21 and Vuori.
The gymnast’s performance has continued to rise recently, although she reportedly missed NCAA competition from March 31 until the end of the season due to an injury.
Speaking of her popularity, Olivia told Sports Illustrated, “There are always people who want to downplay your success and say it’s just your looks or just luck.”
