[autotag]AM Racing[/autotag] has made a shocking change ahead of the NASCAR Xfinity Series race at the Chicago Street Course. On Monday afternoon, AM Racing announced that [autotag]Hailie Deegan[/autotag] will not drive the No. 15 Xfinity car at the Chicago Street Course. Instead, [autotag]Joey Logano[/autotag] will pilot the entry as the organization looks to increase its performance in 2024.
In 2024, Deegan has a best finish of 12th place at Talladega Superspeedway with five straight finishes of 25th place or worse. The 22-year-old driver sits 27th in the point standings, the worst of any driver who has made every start throughout the 2024 NASCAR season. This is a major difference for AM Racing compared to the 2023 season.
Brett Moffitt drove the No. 15 car and finished 15th in the point standings last year. As of now, Deegan sits 27th in the point standings. AM Racing never said when Deegan will return to the entry, but the next Xfinity Series race is at Pocono Raceway on July 13. Logano will look to provide feedback to AM Racing in its efforts to increase performance in 2024.
