Overview

  • Daniel Suarez and Trackhouse Racing confirmed they have mutually agreed to part ways following the conclusion of the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season.
  • Suarez’s current 29th-place standing underscores a contrast with his earlier Cup wins at Sonoma in 2022 and Atlanta in 2024.
  • Trackhouse has indicated a strategic shift toward younger talent by positioning development driver Connor Zilisch for the No. 99 Chevrolet in 2026.
  • Entering free agency, Suarez carries a résumé that includes two Cup victories, a 2016 Xfinity Series championship and status as the only Mexican-born winner in NASCAR national series history.
  • His departure intensifies the NASCAR “silly season” as teams finalize 2026 lineups under charter limits and seek to fill remaining seats.
