SPONSORS | CALENDAR | FINANCES & UPGRADES | WIKIGreetings all, I come bearing RNG results! The damn thing took three hours-long sittings, so I've not included the transcripts but have instead created a summary of exactly who y'all have hired so far:
23XI RacingDenny Hamlin and Kevin Harvick both declined to join the new team. Instead, they secured the services of
Daniel RicciardoAndretti AutosportA bit of a weird one for Andretti, as Marco refused to drive for the team. They ended up signing the following drivers to each car:
25 -
VACANT26 - Rookie
Oliver Askew signs on full time with I think zero stock car experience. Yikes...
27 -
Pietro Fittipaldi will drive full time.
28 -
Dale Earnhardt Jr signed on for Richmond and
AJ Allmendinger for everything else
Beard MotorsportsNoah Gragson signed on for a four-round schedule.
Chip Ganassi RacingThey did miss out on a couple of their targets, but in the end Ganassi ended up with:
1 -
Kurt Busch stays on with his Monster Energy sponsorship.
42 -
Ross Chastain gets the old Larson seat.
84 -
Kevin Magnussen for three rounds, including both road courses.
Front Row MotorsportsAfter a pretty successful RNG, Front Row ended up with:
34 -
Michael McDowell and his Love's sponsorship.
38 -
Brett MoffittGaunt Brothers RacingGaunt Brothers had a bit of a traumatic time filling their full-time seat, but they got there in the end...
40 -
Travis Crabtree for three rounds (including both road courses)
96 -
Corey LaJoie could be the infinite improbability signing of the season.
Germain RacingThe best RNG of the entire grid was enjoyed by Germain Racing. This is how you put together a profitable revolving door:
- Ruben Garcia (3 rounds)
- Jorge Goeters (5 rounds)
- Gary Klutt (3 rounds)
- German Quiroga (5 rounds)
- Hermie Sadler (4 rounds)
- Austin Hill (4 rounds)
- Natalie Decker (6 rounds)
Go Fas RacingGo Fas had a slightly troubled off-season, missing out on their first two preferences for the 32. Despite this, they managed to attract an exceedingly solid driver in Erik Jones.
32 -
Erik JonesHattori Racing EnterprisesHattori took the option of having one seat with a regular driver throughout (that being former F1 race winner Jacques Villeneuve) and one that was more of a revolving door.

Christopher BellLive Fast MotorsportsPretty much just a simple owner-driver job for BJ McLeod after Scott Heckert turned down the road courses.
78 -
BJ McLeodMBM MotorsportsAn entirely unremarkable MBM Motorsports lineup for 2021; first choices all round.

Justin AllgaierPremium MotorsportsNo changes here.

Quin HouffStewart-Haas RacingSome upheaval occurred here - after the team lost its best drivers to Roush and retirement, the backup options were all very... Gene Haas.

Daniel SuarezWood Brothers RacingLet's hope that either the rumours their current driver is on his way out at the end of the year are unfounded, or that he finds a top notch drive for next year.

Matt DiBenedettoHonestly, I'm shocked at how few incomplete rosters there are. Before we move onto sponsors, I would like:
- Andretti to fill the number 25.
- Hattori to find nine more rounds of scrubs.
- Joe Gibbs Racing to fill the number 20.
- JTG-Daugherty to find six more rounds of scrubs.
- Rick Ware Racing to find forty more rounds of scrubs.
Additionally, if Hattori and JTG could let me know which rounds their cars will be in the hands of which drivers, that would be hugely appreciated. Thank you all for your patience the last week or so!
