Richard Childress Racing (RCR) announced its plans to field a third car in the NASCAR Cup Series beginning in the 2025 season. The team has not yet announced who will drive the car, but it is expected to be a competitive entry with the resources and support of RCR.
The addition of a third car is a significant development for RCR. The team has been a mainstay in the NASCAR Cup Series for decades, but it has not fielded a third car since the 2011 season. The move to add a third car shows that RCR is committed to competing at the highest level of NASCAR and that it believes it has the resources to do so.
