RFK Racing owner Brad Keselowski confirmed that the No. 60 Ford will operate as an unchartered entry for the 2027 NASCAR Cup Series season. The organization currently leases a charter from Rick Ware Racing, which has been sold to Legacy Motor Club for their own expansion next year. Without a charter, the No. 60 team lacks a guaranteed spot in every race field. Keselowski intends for driver Ryan Preece to continue with the team despite the change in entry status. The owner acknowledged that while the team faces potential qualification challenges, particularly for the Daytona 500, they are prepared to address those scenarios if they arise during the season. Preece recently earned his first Cup Series victory at Daytona, securing a spot in the current season's playoffs.
