RFK Racing breaks silence on expanding the team to field a third car from 2025

Ford premier tier team RFK Racing is on the track to restore its former glory under Brad Keselowski’s leadership. Since the start of the Next-Gen era, they have been performing strong with both Keselowski and Chris Buscher securing impressive wins. One of the primary objectives of the team during the growth was its expansion.

They have been wanting to make their team three car operations and with the charter prices coming down because of SHR ceasing operations and the dramatic agreement talks, 2025 is arguably the best time to field a third car. There have been rumors that RFK is already completed the process to field another car, but Brad Keselowski has refused to confirm the news yet.

Now, Steve Newmark the president of the team has confirmed that they will most probably be having a third car next season. He revealed that they have already started exploring options for the new entry and has made a lot of progress in the regard. Newmark is very hopeful that they can make it happen.

We started exploring how we could expand to a third car. We’ve made progress to that. I’m very hopeful we’ll have a third car next year.

Steve Newmark said on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.

NASCAR expert claims Ryan Preece is set to drive for RFK in 2025

According to NASCAR journalist Jordan Bianchi, Stewart Haas Racing driver Ryan Preece will race for the team in the 2025 season. He pointed out via his The Athletic article that Preece will have the sponsorship support from Kroger, that he ended its partnership with Ricky Stenhouse Jr.

Kroger, one of the biggest supermarket chains in the United States, is considered one of the biggest sponsors within NASCAR to the extent that for four years it funded two full-time teams at JTG Daugherty Racing. That stint included serving as primary sponsor for two years with Buescher and three years with Preece when each drove for the team.

Jordan Bianchi wrote.

If RFK decides to hire Preece it will be win-win situation for both sides, as the driver can offer a lot with his experience and sponsorship, he brinfgs. On the flip side RFK will help the racer to redeem his career after SHR disappointment. Even if Preece failed to be productive they can easily move on and hire someone like Justin Haley who they have close tier with because of the RFK-RWR connection.
