Kaulig Racing will have 22-year-old Derek Kraus driving in multiple NASCAR Cup Series races this season. Kraus will be making his series debut in the No. 16 Chevrolet at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on March 3, with Western States Flooring as the primary sponsor. Although Kraus has limited experience in the Next Gen car, he did practice and qualify for the team at Richmond Raceway last season for AJ Allmendinger. Kraus had eight starts for Kaulig Racing in the Xfinity Series last year and is excited to make his first Cup Series start with the team that he made his Xfinity debut with. He will also compete in additional Cup Series races at Phoenix Raceway, Kansas Speedway, Darlington Raceway, St. Louis, and Phoenix Raceway. Team president Chris Rice expressed excitement about Kraus’ potential and is looking forward to seeing what he can achieve starting in Las Vegas.
