DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Three-time Supercars champion Shane van Gisbergen will drive full time in the NASCAR Cup Series in 2025 for Trackhouse Racing.
Van Gisbergen will join Ross Chastain and Daniel Suarez to give Trackhouse an expanded, three-car team. Trackhouse bought a third charter — the contract that guarantees cars entry into each Cup race — from Stewart-Haas Racing, which is shuttering its doors at the end of this season.Marks previously announced that Trackhouse and Zane Smith will part ways after this season. Trackhouse loaned Smith to Spire Motorsports for this season because Trackhouse had only two charters.
“Obviously, the Chicago street race is kind of in his wheelhouse. But the rate of adaptability of everything else, just the competition, the restarts, the pit stops, the way you prepared for that race, man, this is a superstar.” Van Gisbergen said his Supercars career had become stale, and he welcomed a new challenge driving stock cars.
