Hailie Deegan, mired in 28th in the Xfinity Series standings midway through her rookie season, has parted ways with AM Racing.
The announcement Monday morning was not a surprise. She was 27th in the standings after 16 events and then was replaced for the Chicago street course race Saturday by two-time Cup champion Joey Logano as the team likely had to qualify on speed and she had to rely on an owners points provisional to get in the three previous road-course races. Logano qualified 15th and finished eighth in Saturday's race.
Having likely maxed out what she could learn in a truck, she moved to the Xfinity Series with AM Racing, which had former truck series champion Brett Moffitt for its first full Xfinity season in 2023, and Moffitt finished 15th in the standings with an average finish of 18th. Deegan had an average starting spot of 29th and finish of 27th driving for AM Racing. She finished on the lead lap four times with a best finish of 12th at Talladega.
