Nascar – Kurt Busch will join Stewart-Haas Racing

Kurt Busch spilled the beans amid speculation he would leave Furniture Row Racing. The driver of the No. 78 Chevrolet has signed a multi-season contract with Stewart-Haas Racing which will therefore enter four cars for next season. Boss-driver Tony Stewart, currently recovering from an accident which caused a broken leg, will compete with Danica Patrick, Kurt Busch and Kevin Harvick who will replace Ryan Newman.

Kurt Busch, whose behavior caused him to be fired from Penske Racing and find himself without a sponsor, assured Fox Sports that he had won a new contract. “It’s signed. This is the situation every driver wants to be in. Having Tony and Kevin Harvick as teammates only makes this more interesting. » The 2004 champion has proven that he still has his place at the forefront of the Sprint Cup since he occupies 12th place in the Championship and could find himself in the Chase this year.
