Haas has opted to move on from one of its major racing operations, pulling out of its set-up in NASCAR.
“The Stewart-Haas NASCAR operation will shut down at the end of the current season, as confirmed in a joint statement by the team. Formed in 2009, its co-owner Gene Haas started CNC Racing in 2002 before partnering with Tony Stewart. Together, they secured 69 Cup Series victories and two drivers’ championships. In the Xfinity Series, the team clinched 25 race wins and the 2023 drivers’ title. Despite the difficult decision to close, the F1 branch of Gene Haas’ racing ventures will continue unaffected. Haas F1 Team remains active and committed to its Formula 1 campaign following the closure of its NASCAR operation.”
