The current NASCAR Cup season of 2024 has been disappointing for Stewart Haas Racing. They entered this season with hopes of redemption after a humiliating 2023 season in which they failed to win any races. To make matters worse, they also lost two experienced drivers in [Driver 1] and [Driver 2], who retired from the Cup Series.
[Driver 3], who has been the second-best performer after Kevin Harvick in the modern era, has taken on the role of lead driver at SHR. However, despite being the standout racer for the team, his results have been lackluster compared to the rest of the field. He has yet to achieve a top-5 finish this season and has finished outside the top-10 in six out of the ten races so far.
Stewart-Haas Racing has the option to retain Chase Briscoe for the upcoming year. Briscoe recently shared his thoughts on his future and the role he plays as the team’s veteran, as they continue to search for a manufacturer deal and significant new sponsorship for the next season.
In anticipation of the upcoming race at Dover, Briscoe discussed his performance and acknowledged that he no longer has any excuses for his poor form. He admitted to making mistakes and emphasized that he is putting immense pressure on himself to maximize his race results every weekend.
Briscoe also highlighted his ability to thrive in high-pressure situations throughout his career, indicating that he expects to deliver strong performances in the 2024 season based on the experience he has gained over the years.
While the No:14 team has consistently finished within the top-15 in the past two months, they are now focused on taking the next step. They aim to find an advantage with the new Ford car and secure a crucial victory in the 2024 season, putting an end to their unfortunate winless streak.
