RFK Racing Gains Momentum as Ryan Preece Eyes Martinsville Victory
After struggling for much of the season, RFK Racing, led by Brad Keselowski, is beginning to find its rhythm in NASCAR. The team had a rough start, but things are turning around—especially with Ryan Preece stepping into the spotlight. With two consecutive top-ten finishes, Preece is proving his potential. As the Cook Out 400 at Martinsville Speedway approaches, fans are eager to see if he can maintain his momentum.
Preece Overcomes Early Setbacks
Ryan Preece’s strong performances are even more impressive considering the challenges he faced earlier this season, including a dramatic crash at the Daytona 500. However, his recent success has been fueled by an outstanding pit crew, whose precision helped him secure ninth place at Homestead-Miami with an incredible 8.69-second pit stop.
The Team Behind the Driver
While NASCAR often highlights the drivers, Preece knows that success is a team effort. Since joining RFK Racing following the closure of Stewart-Haas Racing, he has been quick to credit his No. 60 crew for their contributions. “I’ll always give them the recognition they deserve, especially after a performance like Homestead,” he said.
Brad Keselowski has also emphasized the value of teamwork at RFK Racing, pushing a culture of “Innovation. Professionalism. Relentless. Teamwork.” The results speak for themselves, with the team securing multiple top-ten finishes and a top-five result this season.
Martinsville: A Pivotal Opportunity
Looking ahead to Martinsville, Preece remains optimistic. Despite early-season struggles, including a 15th-place finish at Phoenix and mechanical issues at Circuit of The Americas, he is focused on turning things around. His confidence is backed by his strong history in short-track racing, particularly at Martinsville, where he has previous victories in the Whelen Modified Tour.
As the NASCAR Cup Series heads to Martinsville, Preece is eager to capitalize on his experience and recent success. With the possibility of securing his first Cup Series win, the big question remains: Can he and his team rise to the challenge at ‘The Paperclip’? NASCAR fans are waiting to find out.
