James Small, the crew chief for Joe Gibbs Racing, is excited to work with Chase Briscoe next season, as they both have a lot to prove and share common goals.

Small, who has been with the team since 2020, looks forward to building a successful future with Briscoe, whom he only recently met but sees as an amazing talent.

Both Small and Briscoe are eager to prove themselves and succeed in the upcoming season.
