[autotag]Carson Hocevar[/autotag] broke through for an incredible 2023 NASCAR season that featured several Truck Series victories, a trip to the Championship 4, and replacement races in the No. 42 car for Legacy Motor Club that put him on the map. Next year, Hocevar will drive the No. 77 Cup car for Spire Motorsports full-time with a familiar crew chief on the top of the box.
Spire Motorsports announced on Wednesday afternoon that Luke Lambert will join Hocevar and the No. 77 team in 2024. Lambert moved to the NASCAR Cup Series with Noah Gragson, and after the driver’s suspension, he was the crew chief for Hocevar in his events. The 41-year-old crew chief has also held the role at Roush Fenway Racing and Richard Childress Racing.
This is a fantastic partnership, as Hocevar has experience with Lambert in the Cup Series. In fact, the duo gelled really well as the No. 42 car saw a drastic jump in performance near the end of the 2023 NASCAR season. If all goes right moving forward, Hocevar and Lambert could become a force in the Cup Series.
