For better or worse? Ranking NASCAR offseason driver, crew chief moves

Full-Time in No. 51 Ford Rick Ware Racing announced Wednesday that Ware would pilot the team's No. 51 Ford entry in all 36 points-awarding races and the season-opening exhibition Cook Out Clash Feb. 2 at B...

Impact This puts to rest any uncertainty about multiple drivers potentially sharing the seat of the No. 51 Ford as has happened in the past. Ware will get all 36 points-paying starts including the pre-season exhibition at Bowman Gray Stadium. The veteran driver was part-time last season and will very much welcome the full slate of races in the upcoming season.

Career Best Finish at Daytona Ware finished fourth in the Coke Zero Sugar 400 NASCAR Cup Series race at Daytona International Speedway Saturday night.

Impact The driver of the No. 15 Ford started deep in the field and would survive the seven cautions, many of them multi-car crashes that would thin the field. Ware would lineup in good shape on the overtime restart and battle among the leaders. The veteran driver could not get to the lead, but Ware would hold off Ty Gibbs to secure his first-career Top-5 finish and best-career finish in his 103rd Cup Series start.

Making NASCAR return at Dega Ware (suspension) will drive the No. 15 Ford for Rick Ware Racing in Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race at Talladega, Austin Konenski of Motorsports Wire reports.

Impact Ware will make his first NASCAR start since being suspended on April 10, 2023 on charges of assault by strangulation and assault causing serious injury. Those charges were dropped in December and Ware was reinstated by NASCAR. Ware drove the No. 51 for RWR for a few seasons, but that ride has since been taken over by Justin Haley full-time. The No. 15 entry has been driven mostly by Kaz Grala this year. Ware has the only top-10 finish in RWR history which came back in 2022 when he finished sixth at Daytona. It's unclear how many more races Ware will compete in this year.

Impact Plans are coming into focus at Rick Ware Racing. Grala was recently announced as a part-time driver for the team and it's expected he'll be joined by Ware in the No. 15 Ford. The young driver is currently rebuilding his sponsorship portfolio after his recent suspension, and it's taking some time to put together. Ware competed in seven events last season in the team's No. 51 entry.
