RFK Racing linked to stunning driver to replace Brad Keselowski

RFK Racing will be looking for a new driver in 2027. On Tuesday, RFK Racing and Brad Keselowski announced they will part ways following the 2026 season. This was a stunning development that leaves the No. 6 car open for 2027. However, which NASCAR driver could join RFK Racing in the Cup Series?

FOX Sports’ Bob Pockrass name dropped John Hunter Nemechek as a possible replacement for Keselowski at RFK Racing. Nemechek was let go by Legacy Motor Club and will become a free agent after the 2026 NASCAR season. Josh Berry will compete in the No. 42 car, replacing Nemechek.

Nemechek would be an excellent option for RFK Racing as he has sponsorship and Cup Series experience. While the Legacy Motor Club driver has never won at NASCAR’s top level, he has flashed his potential. It is far from guaranteed, but Nemechek would be an excellent fit at RFK Racing.
