Ryan Preece's 2027 prediction: Will he return to RFK Racing?

Ryan Preece might be dealing with the most unique situation in the NASCAR garage. RFK Racing only has two charters for three drivers, and Brad Keselowski and Chris Buescher are locked in long-term. Preece could be on the outside looking in next season, but will he actually leave RFK Racing?

Motorsports Wire is predicting that Preece will return to the No. 60 car for RFK Racing in 2027. The issue for the NASCAR organization will be losing a charter, but the driver of the No. 60 car will run as an open entry. This will hurt RFK Racing financially, which could affect their overall performance.

Preece doesn’t deserve to lose his ride, and RFK Racing wants to continue as a three-car team. If push comes to shove, RFK Racing should keep Preece in the No. 60 car moving forward. There shouldn’t be a scenario in which he leaves unless RFK Racing believes it is too much of a financial burden.
