Gene Haas Announces He's Keeping NASCAR Teams For 2025, Haas Factory team will field a NASCAR Cup Series team and Xfinity Series teams. Where Is Aric Almirola? TikTok: / brakehard Twitter: / brakehardblog Instagram: / brakehardblog
Welcome back Cole Custer in cup in 2025. This definitely guarantees it. Maybe bring the 00 back to cup 1st time since StarCom Racing and David Reuitmann with MWR.
I heard it on another nascar youtuber from William Blackwell that Aric Almirola got into a fight with Bubba Wallace and punch him during the JGR meeting, so the one that wanted Aric Almirola release was not JGR it was TRD/Toyota, so TRD/Toyota probably ordered JGR to withdrew the remaining 2024 schedule for Aric Almirola.
most likely Haas will run the 00 for Custer in the Cup Series. Preece may get one of the xfinity cars. if Haas stays a ford team I think Deegan may get the other xfinity car
What is your timeline for legacy MC before they become competitive and start running like a tier 1 team end of this year next year or are we talking multiple years your thought
Many things need to be worked on at Legacy MC. Money, talent, and leadership are the 3 that need to improve. Unfortunately, in NASCAR money buys talent/speed so the odds from a percentage side are not in favor of the smaller teams. Could you look at the winner/owner side of things this year? Hendricks(7/41.176%) Gibbs (5/29.412%) = [70.588%] for the 2 owners. (5) left with the other 4 teams left. That's just through 17-point races. Interesting take on the cup series so far.
@@bennievaughan2276 yes I agree with what you are saying they have one of the three and that is money the 43 is fully funded for the first time in probably two decades as far as leadership and talent that's debatable last year the 43 had winning speed late in the season out running jgr and Hendricks with no manufacturer support that's crazy to me and now you are supposedly a tier 1 key Toyota partner and racing for 30 th place and do know some of it is cause they are doing it on there own with no alliance with Jgr I didn't think it would be this bad
Maybe these are related? A2 no longer with Gibbs... His old team keeping a charter... Maybe a full or part time schedule in Haas's cup car? Or maybe he goes to Xfinity full time for Haas... Aric maybe misses full time racing, who knows?
Haas to Chevy with HMS alliance., he had an alliance with HMS before Tony bought in. Cole staying with Haas., papa will be running operations, like papa Cindrics has seat on Penske Austin has a ride there.
Aric is a pretty religious man & a perfect for for Gibbs & "He Gets Us" so i cant imagine a split between them. IMO he got offered another deal that he couldn't refuse and it wont be announced till later. ...or we have another Jeffery Earnhardt/iK9 situation.
I saw this coming when Aric announced he was going back to Gibbs. Grandpa Joe used and screwed Aric again! Timeline on legacy mc, that they'll go out of business? Tier 1 Toyota team my foot!
Looks like JGR is gonna have to find some different drivers to race the rest of the races in the 20 car in Xfinity. They’ve already got Christopher Bell driving that car this weekend at New Hampshire. But I have an idea of how they can win at Daytona when the Xfinity Series goes back there on August 23… Put somebody who’s a good restrictor plate racer who can give Austin Hill a run for his money in that 20 car, and I promise: you will reap the benefits, and you will be winners at Daytona in the Xfinity Series for the first time in 11 years. I’m looking at somebody like Denny Hamlin or Bubba Wallace.
The 41 has always been Gene's car. I bet he keeps that number. Re: Aric Almirola, Joe screwed him over the first time he was there. He has a record of it. I was shocked Aric would give him another chance to sh*t on him.
So in hindsight a couple of years ago smoke said he was done with nascar after they got caught cheating. His partner was busy running f1 & the bs caught up. Haas never wanted out he wanted away from smoke or smoke wanted out. While Haas wanted to keep Joe & Cole Custer his friends in the program & smoke indicated he fired Cole. Haas can afford as many teams as he wants to & this break up is about negotiations. Haas knows 1 car can't be competitive so when dose Haas make it a 2 car team? Does Haas fix his Ford relationship? He has an advantage that he builds all the Fords in Xfinity. I wouldn't doubt Haas builds an alliance with another Ford team because he has the room, the shop & the people. Plus he neede the on track data. This further confirms 3 charters will be sold & this leaves an open door for a new partner or alliance to buy a charter. This is a open door for another driver owner to buy in. Kyle Bush in a Ford? Nah. Burton saves his baby boys butt?
Why don't Dale and Kelly team up with Gene Haas,? Gene don't need the money and it will allow the Earnhardt family to own or be partners in a NASCAR team. Just like Gene did with Tony Stewart? Just a thought!! One side would have to change manufacturers.
"There is a guy at Wood Brothers that does bring sponsorship along " ...Be nice if he brought some real racing talent too but talent is at about 3 or 4 on the list of requirements for many teams. It is hilarious to hear the announcers say these are the best drivers in the world, we can't really know as most rides are purchased in some form.
@@blacklisterdwhen haas was haas automotive racing before Stewart bought stake for the team in ‘08 , and even Stewart bought stake and anything from ‘09 when Stewart started racing in SHR to ‘16 till he retired as a driver himself , they were getting Hendrick Motorsports alliances , basically everything their engines , chassis, technical alliances etc , basically that team was a HMS #2 team , till ‘17 was the start of season they switched over to Ford , and started building their own chassis and cars and their engines from Roush ; in that case if JTG combines together with haas they be getting RCR racing alliances which is complete dogcrap alliances
@@jesusleon8735 Either chevy team Alliance will give away control & allow the master to predict a championship outcome. HMS blew engines at very timely & costly times in championship battles. Hence Gibbs left & SHR. Haas still has the resources to go on with Ford & a huge bargaining chip with Ford that SHR builds all the Ford cars for Xfinity. Ford doesn't like Smoke. Smoke doesn't like Ford.. Its in Haas favor now.
@@blacklisterdyou’re right it’s now in Haas and as well Joe Custer favors now , on what manufacturer their team would be , obviously Joe Custer because he’s the president of the operations and will be transitioning on new team platform next season 2025 , and his son being the driver , also his son won a championship in xfinity and with ford, I always felt that stewart just wanted to be out that team and nascar in general , especially the past seasons SHR being neglected so bad
@@blacklisterd and yeah Tony Stewart in a way he did kinda bash ford on full manufacture oem support , during his nhra meeting , since now for nhra mopar / dodger is giving him full oem support , and saying it’s nice to have full oem backing , meanwhile this season for nascar ford gave most support for this season FRM and as well they got Team Penske alliances Tony stewart pretty much whole time he wanted to sign himself out of the team and nascar, all while it screwed over lots of people on the team the racers, crew chiefs , crews, and employees
