Josh Berry stated on Saturday that he does not believe he is being considered to drive the NASCAR Cup Series car for Gene Haas next season, based on how he found out about the news. Berry mentioned that he read rumors and news online regarding the charters and the team’s future, leading him to assume he is not a candidate for the ride due to lack of communication. Haas initially announced the end of NASCAR operations in May but later reversed course on June 20, deciding to remain in NASCAR with one Cup Series charter, rebranding the team as Haas Factory Team while keeping two Xfinity Series teams. Berry expressed gratitude for his time at Stewart-Haas Racing and looks forward to exploring new opportunities in the future. Although Berry has not disclosed his plans for 2025, he and crew chief Rodney Childers hope to stay together as they remain optimistic about securing a Cup Series ride next season, reflecting on their recent strong performances and potential for success in the future.
