[autotag]Wood Brothers Racing[/autotag] has been connected to several drivers in the NASCAR Cup Series for 2025; however, the organization has finally announced the new driver of the No. 21 car. On Wednesday morning, Wood Brothers Racing announced that [autotag]Josh Berry[/autotag] will take over for Harrison Burton in the No. 21 car full-time starting in 2025 on a multi-year contract.
Berry currently drives for Stewart-Haas Racing and has impressed in his rookie season. The driver of the No. 4 car has two top-5 finishes and four top-10 finishes while sitting 19th in the point of standings. Berry has a best finish of third place twice at Darlington Raceway and New Hampshire Motor Speedway during the 2024 NASCAR season.
The No. 21 Cup car has struggled in the NextGen era, and this move should provide a reset for Wood Brothers Racing in 2025. Berry has only improved with more time in the Cup Series, and there’s no reason why it can’t continue. Berry has been on the verge of entering victory lane in the summer, and it wouldn’t be shocking to see him win a race before he joins Wood Brothers Racing.
