JTG Daugherty Racing to run one full-time team in 2022; Preece looking

UPDATE: Ryan Preece was a guest on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Wednesday afternoon and confirmed he is looking for a ride next season.

He said there are no existing offers for a ride and is waiting for his next opportunity, whatever that may be.

ORIGINAL POST 8-31-2021: JTG Daugherty Racing does not plan to seek an additional charter for the team’s second car next season and instead reduce to one full-time team starting in 2022 in the NASCAR Cup Series, co-owner Brad Daugherty said in an NBC Zoom call Aug. 31

“We’re not going to pursue another charter,” Daugherty said, according to reporters on the call. “When we started out, I had a good buddy who told me about 10 years ago … ‘If you have one bad race team, why have two? It just makes it even more difficult.’”

“We want to be a really strong one-car race company, and that’s what we’re going back to next season,” Daugherty added.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr., who drives the team’s No. 47, is believed to be signed with JTG through the end of the year; the team has not yet made an announcement on its driver lineup for 2022.
