Trackhouse Racing’s plans for the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season are still unknown; however, there has been some progress. Connor Zilisch, signed by Trackhouse Racing in the offseason, will drive full-time for JR Motorsports in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, while Daniel Suarez signed an extension. Now, with one expected opening in the Cup Series, a driver has been tabbed as the favorite.
According to FOX Sports’ Bob Pockrass, Trackhouse Racing is “likely” to elevate Shane van Gisbergen to its Cup Series program for the 2025 season. Van Gisbergen signed a contract with Trackhouse Racing after his Cup Series victory at the Chicago Street Course in 2023 and runs full-time for Kaulig Racing in the Xfinity Series this season.
With Suarez and Ross Chastian under contract, it leaves one seat for van Gisbergen and Zane Smith in 2025. With Smith labeled as the leading candidate for Front Row Motorsports, it suggests that van Gisbergen is the priority for Trackhouse Racing. If so, it would be a massive move that makes van Gisbergen a threat for the playoffs.
