[autotag]RFK Racing[/autotag] has been very active during the offseason by revealing new sponsorships, a third part-time entry for the 2024 Daytona 500, and more. Over the last few days, the organization has revealed paint schemes daily as part of a five-day stretch of announcements.

Los Angeles Lakers star [autotag]LeBron James[/autotag] posted on X with excitement of what is coming for RFK Racing’s new paint schemes. This isn’t the first time that James has been connected to the team. Fenway Sports Group, which co-owns RFK Racing, added the four-time NBA champion as a partner in 2021. In fact, James’ foundation was on Chris Buescher’s car at Michigan in 2022.

Could there be another situation brewing between James and RFK Racing? The Lakers forward hasn’t been very involved with NASCAR throughout his career, but something might be happening. Either James is becoming more involved, or an announcement is coming. It will be interesting to see if anything comes from James’ post on Thursday morning.

Most notably, Build Submarines will be present for the Daytona 500, Coca-Cola 600, Southern 500, and Championship Weekend at Phoenix Raceway. When RFK Racing hits the track for NASCAR’s most notable events, there is a strong likelihood that Build Submarines will be there too.

RFK Racing’s 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season preview

RFK Racing enters the 2024 NASCAR season looking to break through for more success. Here, you can check out RFK’s 2024 season preview!

[autotag]RFK Racing[/autotag] broke through during the 2023 NASCAR season for its most wins since 2013. While Brad Keselowski went winless for a Round of 12 elimination, Chris Buescher won three races and made the Round of 8. That was a major jump in performance as RFK Racing has continuously improved since Keselowski joined the team.

Now, RFK Racing enters 2024, looking to break through for even more victories, including a berth in the Championship 4. There are reasons for optimism, and a new Ford body could help boost the organization’s competitiveness. Either way, expectations are high entering the new campaign.

RFK Racing linked to this rising NASCAR driver for Cup Series starts in 2024

RFK Racing is linked to this rising NASCAR driver for Cup Series starts during the 2024 season. Who could drive the No. 60 car this year?

Near the end of 2023, [autotag]RFK Racing[/autotag] introduced a third, part-time entry that will run at the 2024 Daytona 500. David Ragan will drive the No. 60 Cup car, with the entry expected to make a few more starts. However, will Ragan be the only driver to compete in the No. 60 car? It appears that won’t be the case, as other drivers have been linked to the ride.

According to Motorsport.con’s Nick DeGroot, ThorSport Racing driver Ty Majeski is one driver that has emerged as a possibility for RFK Racing and its No. 60 team. Majeski has been full-time in the NASCAR Truck Series for the last two seasons and has compiled three victories, plus a Championship 4 appearance in 2022.

Majeski is one of the best Ford drivers in the lower ranks of NASCAR after Zane Smith, the 2022 Truck Series champion, left for Trackhouse Racing. The ThorSport Racing driver is ready to make starts in the higher levels of the sport, and RFK Racing would be a great spot. If so, it will be interesting to see which races Majeski would compete in this season.

RFK Racing looking to expand beyond NASCAR Cup Series in the future

RFK Racing is looking to expand beyond the NASCAR Cup Series in the future. Which non-NASCAR series is RFK Racing eying for its operations?

[autotag]RFK Racing[/autotag] has been in the news cycle for several reasons in 2023. The organization took a step in the right direction performance-wise by winning three NASCAR Cup Series races. Also, the introduction of a third part-time car, which David Ragan will drive in the 2024 Daytona 500, was a big announcement. Now, RFK Racing has another plan up its sleeves.

According to RFK Racing co-owner Brad Keselowski through NBC Sports, the organization wants to expand into IMSA sometime in the future. Unfortunately for fans who want to see this happen sooner rather than later, RFK Racing will focus more on a third entry in the Cup Series. Then, Keselowski and company will look to join the road course series.

Overall, it would be a great move as new-era NASCAR organizations are expanding into other racing series. Trackhouse Racing announced in early December that it would field an entry in MotoGP for the 2024 season, and now RFK Racing is talking about IMSA. It may take some time but RFK Racing’s addition to IMSA would be a massive story.

RFK Racing reveals new NASCAR paint scheme for Brad Keselowski in 2024

RFK Racing reveals a new NASCAR Cup Series paint scheme for Brad Keselowski in 2024. Take a look at Keselowski’s new scheme!

[autotag]RFK Racing[/autotag] released the first official paint scheme for Ford’s new Mustang Dark Horse Next Gen car, which will debut in race action during the 2024 NASCAR season.

David Ragan to drive No. 60 car for RFK Racing in 2024 Daytona 500

RFK Racing announced on Wednesday afternoon that David Ragan will drive the No. 60 Cup car for the organization in the 2024 Daytona 500

[autotag]RFK Racing[/autotag] has been teasing a third car for the 2024 Daytona 500, and the organization confirmed it on Wednesday afternoon. RFK Racing announced that [autotag]David Ragan[/autotag] will drive the No. 60 car at the 2024 Daytona 500. Ragan will need to qualify for the event, as the third entry is considered open. The No. 60 car will be alongside the other 36 guaranteed entries.

The 37-year-old driver competed in every Daytona 500 from 2006 to 2022 before not participating in last season’s event. Ragan spent 2007 to 2011 with RFK Racing and won at Daytona International Speedway in his final year. He has experience winning races at NASCAR’s top level but has never been able to win the Daytona 500.

Overall, this is a great partnership between Ragan and RFK Racing. The NASCAR team didn’t announce any additional races for the No. 60 entry, but it hasn’t been ruled out. RFK Racing has been electric on superspeedway tracks since Brad Keselowski’s arrival, and it wouldn’t be out of the question to see Ragan compete if he makes the event.
