Ryan Preece is expected to drive an open car for RFK Racing in the 2027 NASCAR Cup Series season. This development follows Chris Buscher's contract extension with the team, leaving Preece without a chartered entry. The team has three drivers positioned for just two charter spots. Preece's transition to an open entry aligns with RFK Racing's ongoing partnership with Kroger and other sponsors. Brad Keselowski is anticipated to remain in the No. 6 car for several more years.
