Riley Herbst to run Daytona 500 with Rick Ware Racing
Riley Herbst, who races full-time in the Xfinity Series with Stewart-Haas Racing, will run a partial Cup schedule this season with Rick Ware Racing. He made his Cup debut in last year’s Daytona 500, driving for RWR, and finished an impressive 10th. Herbst is excited to be back at the Daytona 500 and is eager to apply what he learned last year to this year’s race. This will be his fifth career Cup start, with his most recent one being at Talladega, where he finished ninth. Herbst had a strong 2023 Xfinity season, scoring a breakthrough victory and finishing no lower than fourth in his last five races. His teammate for the Daytona 500 will be Justin Haley, who won the Cup race at Daytona in 2019, and Kaz Grala will also share the No. 15 ride.
