John Hunter Nemechek will have a new home in 2027. Earlier in the month, Legacy Motor Club announced that Nemechek will not return to the No. 42 car in 2027. Instead, Josh Berry will pilot the entry in his place. However, where could Nemechek land for the 2027 NASCAR Cup Series season?
FOX Sports' Bob Pockrass name dropped Nemechek as a possible driver for RFK Racing. On Tuesday, RFK Racing announced that Brad Keselowski would be leaving the organization after the 2026 season. This was a stunning development that might work out in Nemechek's favor.
After all, there aren't many seats available in the Cup Series. Nemechek was facing the possibility of leaving the Cup Series, and while it is still possible, RFK Racing would be a great outcome. Nemechek wants
to compete in the Cup Series and RFK Racing happens to have a new seat open.
