Amid the whirlwind of recent changes, Ford may find solace in the transition of a Kaulig Racing driver to Rick Ware Racing, especially in light of Zane Smith, one of their stellar Truck Series drivers, signaling a return to Chevrolet. While Rick Ware Racing’s triumphs have been limited thus far, Brad Keselowski’s association undoubtedly elevates its prospects.

To underscore this optimism, none other than the iconic NASCAR maestro, Dale Earnhardt Jr., has expressed confidence. In his esteemed opinion, the team and manufacturer are poised for unparalleled ascendancy with the introduction of the new driver under the guidance of Brad Keselowski.

Achieving a commendable P2 finish at Chicago Street Course—a feat made more impressive by starting at the very back of a 37-car grid—Kaulig Racing driver No. 31 certainly turned heads. Yet, amid a season replete with accolades, the Kaulig Racing driver announced a strategic pivot to Rick Ware Racing. A significant lure? RWR’s recent collaboration with Brad Keselowski is now an integral part of the RFK team. The Keselowski touch is evident; the team celebrated three near-successive wins within the concluding five races of the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series regular season.

Adding gravitas to Justin Haley‘s move is an endorsement from the legendary Dale Earnhardt Jr. With palpable faith in Keselowski’s choices, Earnhardt Jr. highlighted RFK Racing and Ford’s surging performance trajectory. He eloquently stated, “And you might be catching a ride on this lightning bolt at the right time because it just so happens that Roush Fenway Keselowski racing is also on this sort of meteoric rise in performance, which, to Brad’s credit, will then gain more manufacturer support.”

He further added, “That big funnel that Ford has maybe gets situated a little bit more over the top of the Roush camp, more so than in the past. So, all of that information and support trickles down, so timing-wise, man! This looks really great.”

Undeniably, Keselowski’s union with the RFK team has invigorated them, ushering in a fresh perspective and a slew of victories. And now the same could be the case with RWR as well. Keselowski himself is bullish on the potential of Rick Ware’s team, anticipating a fruitful journey ahead.
