When Lance Snacks agreed to sponsor Chase Briscoe for one or more races during the 2025 NASCAR season, Briscoe responded. He left Stewart-Haas Racing last season to drive the #19 Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing. In 2025, the 30-year-old will also compete for JGR in a few Xfinity Series races. Lance Snacks has recently agreed to sponsor the team’s #19 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. May 2025 is the planned date of the race. Briscoe responded to the deal by talking about his early years and how happy he was to drive an Xfinity vehicle for the first time since 2022.

“Very fantastic! It’s nice to be a member of the family because I’ve eaten @LanceSnacks since I was a child, whether it was at the racetrack, while fishing, on the golf course, or in other locations! It’s been too long, and I’m eager to get behind the wheel of another @NASCAR_Xfinity vehicle.” On X, he wrote. Along with two wins, 30 top 10 finishes, and two pole positions, Briscoe made his Cup Series debut in 2021 with Stewart-Haas Racing. He was going to stay on the team. SHR did, however, declare that they would shut down following the conclusion of the 2024 season. Despite not having a place for the forthcoming season, all four of their drivers were later signed by other teams. Briscoe’s move to Joe Gibbs Racing was set to be announced later; however, it was spoiled earlier than expected.

Chase Briscoe’s response after his new teammate unintentionally told JGR about his move

Christopher Bell, the driver of the #20 Toyota, unintentionally told the public about Chase Briscoe’s transfer to Joe Gibbs Racing during a press conference in New Hampshire, long before the news was formally published. Briscoe expressed a humorous response to the entire event, calling it a “funny thing.” “The entire situation is very amusing. ‘What do you think about what Christopher said earlier?’ asks this reporter who approaches me (in New Hampshire). “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I say. “Oh, he said you’re going to JGR next year,” he says. When he showed me the video, I thought it was hilarious. “It was undoubtedly one of those instances where you just have to laugh”

Though everything is well, Christopher felt terrible. “I just give him a hard time about it whenever I get the chance,” Chase Briscoe continued. [via The Daily Express] The #19 Toyota, last driven by Martin Truex Jr., will be piloted by Chase Briscoe. After playing a crucial role in the championship for nearly 20 years, the latter announced his departure from the series. However, on a part-time basis, he will occasionally mark his presence with Tricon Garage.
