Ryan Preece will drive the No. 60 Ford for Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing (RFK) in the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series, the team confirmed on Tuesday.
He will join Brad Keselowski and Chris Buescher in RFK’s expanded three-car lineup.
Speaking about the move, co-owner and driver Keselowski said:
“Having a third team gives us another shot at the win on any given weekend. It’s a great opportunity for us at RFK. Our goal is to be an elite organization, I would say a world-class organization, and to do that in NASCAR, you’ve got to win races. The more teams you have, the better that opportunity is to elevate all the programs.”
The 34-year-old Preece joins RFK after Stewart-Haas Racing’s decision to cease operations at the end of the season. Reflecting on his new role, Preece expressed his excitement and determination.
“It’s (an opportunity) that I’m really eager and excited for,” Preece said.
“You look at how many weeks in a row Brad and Chris finished top two or top three and had some extremely good stats and found Victory Lane.
“For me, it’s a great opportunity, one that’s filled with pressure. But I think if you’ve looked at my career in those pressure-type situations, I’ve succeeded. I’m grateful for the opportunity.”
Though Preece is still seeking his first Cup Series win, he brings experience with two victories each in the Xfinity and Truck Series.
