Josh Berry is set to reach a career milestone this Sunday at Pocono Raceway, making his 100th NASCAR Cup Series start when he takes the green flag in the Wood Brothers’ No. 21 Ford Mustang Dark Horse, which will carry the colors of new partner Capgemini.
Capgemini is an AI-powered global business and technology transformation partner that helps organizations create tangible business value through AI, technology and people. Capgemini is headquartered in Paris, France, and employs more than 420,000 team members across more than 50 countries and delivers services spanning strategy, technology, design, engineering and business operations.
Berry, who has made 51 of his previous 99 starts in a Wood Brothers Ford, said on a teleconference Wednesday that he hasn’t really kept up with how many career starts he’s made.
“You hear the 100th race a lot in Cup racing just when they refer to people starting out their careers and the amount of time it takes to get things figured out and get your feet under you,” he said. “So I guess I finally made that and at least have been to victory lane once before that time.
“I’ve just been really fortunate to drive for four or five teams throughout the 100 starts, a bunch of different car numbers…. and I’m excited for Pocono.
“Honestly, it’s one of my favorite tracks to go to. It’s a really fun place to drive and hopefully we can have us a good weekend.”
