SHR closure leads to a seat shakeup in NASCAR. A look at who is driving where in 2025
Associated PressCHARLOTTE, N.C. — There won’t be a Stewart-Haas Racing in NASCAR next season now that Hall of Famer Tony Stewart has left the series and the four-car organization he co-owned with Formula 1 team owner Gene Haas. Noah Gragson is slated to move to Front Row Motorsports, but that team joined 23XI Racing in refusing to sign NASCAR’s final offer on charters and now is embroiled in an antitrust lawsuit against the sanctioning body. Michael McDowell left Front Row for Spire Motorsports, which also brought back Justin Haley, the only driver to win a Cup race in Spire’s short history. Shane van Gisbergen, the dramatic winner in his first-ever Cup race back in 2023, will race full-time at NASCAR’s top level as Trackhouse Racing expands to three cars. But with those two teams suing NASCAR and NASCAR saying the purchase of SHR’s charters will not be approved, their fate remains unknown if the teams continue expansion plans as “open” cars.
