Spire, Justin Haley to Part Ways After 2025 Cup Season

Spire has not named a 2026 driver for the No. 7 Chevrolet.

Overview

  • The team announced the split on Oct. 14 with co-owner Jeff Dickerson calling it a difficult decision and praising Haley’s contributions.
  • Haley’s 2025 results trail his Spire teammates, with one top-five, two top-10s, an average finish around 22nd, and 31st in points.
  • Haley delivered Spire’s lone NASCAR Cup win in 2019 with a rain-shortened victory at Daytona International Speedway.
  • Plans for the No. 7 will be revealed later, with outlets reporting speculative candidates such as Daniel Suárez after his Trackhouse exit.
  • Haley took over the No. 7 late in 2024 after Corey LaJoie, worked with interim crew chief Ryan Sparks following Rodney Childers’ early-season departure, and scored a season-best third at Daytona in August.
