Noah Gragson, a promising NASCAR driver, will be joining Stewart-Haas Racing in the NASCAR Cup Series from 2024 onwards, replacing Aric Almirola who has moved to Joe Gibbs Racing. The agreement is multi-year, although no sponsors have been announced yet. Tony Stewart, co-owner of Stewart-Haas Racing, expressed his enthusiasm for having Gragson as part of their team, highlighting Gragson’s consistent performance and championship contention in previous races. Gragson had previously raced 21 times last season with Legacy Motor Club before parting ways. Although he faced suspension and sensitivity training due to liking an insensitive meme, Gragson was reinstated in September. Drew Blickensderfer, a series veteran with four career wins, will continue to oversee the No. 10 team and Gragson. Gragson, excited about the opportunity, expressed his determination to meet the high expectations at Stewart-Haas and deliver wins in the Cup Series. Stewart-Haas Racing, with two championships and 69 race victories, aims to bounce back after a winless 2023 season. Gragson joins Chase Briscoe, Ryan Preece, and rookie Josh Berry in the Stewart-Haas Racing lineup.
