Richard Childress Racing to run third NASCAR Cup car part-time in 2025

Richard Childress Racing announces that it will run a third NASCAR Cup car part-time in 2025. Find out more details about RCR’s third entry!

[autotag]Richard Childress Racing[/autotag] has announced one part of its plans for the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season. On Monday morning, Richard Childress Racing announced that it will run a third Cup Series entry part-time next season. According to the NASCAR team, crew chief Andy Street will lead the third entry with “multiple drivers” in 2025.

In 2024, Richard Childress Racing entered a third car on six different occasions. Austin Hill led the way with four races, while Ty Dillon and Will Brown each competed in one event. The NASCAR organization hasn’t announced any drivers for its third entry, but Hill seems like a logical option. Also, Chandler Smith, who has something signed for 2025, has been rumored as a potential driver.

It will be very fascinating to see how many races the third entry will run for Richard Childress Racing. The No. 33 car has competed over the last three seasons, but jumped from one race to six races last year. Could there be more races on deck for the No. 33 car? It wouldn’t be surprising as Richard Childress Racing has drivers knocking on the door of the Cup Series.
