Kurt Busch future 23XI Racing driver?

After fifteen races contested in 2021, there is no longer any doubt that the future of 23XI Racing will depend on the addition of a second car from 2022, Kurt Busch would be the driver.

Will Kurt Busch leave Chip Ganassi Racing at the end of the season? While in the last year of his contract, a clause prohibits him from officially discussing with competing teams. However, the future of Kurt Busch should pass through 23XI Racing in 2022. Indeed, the 2004 champion in the NASCAR Cup Series is the privileged candidate to drive the second car of the team.

Neither Denny Hamlin nor Kurt Busch has spoken clearly on the subject. According to Jordan Bianchi of theathletic.com, talks with Chip Ganassi Racing or any other team won’t start until the summer. The contract clause prohibiting Kurt Busch from speaking to other teams expires in early June.

I am still working on some things. Obviously there is a lot going on.

Kurt Busch would come with Monster Energy in his luggage, a significant financial support for 23XI Racing.

In the coming weeks, the wheel of the No. 1 Chevrolet of Chip Ganassi Racing could be the object of all envy. Ryan Newman at the end of his contract with Roush and possibly pushed out by Brad Keselowski could be a credible candidate. Unless Chip Ganassi looks at some drivers present in XFINITY.
