Corey Day's future in the NASCAR Cup Series will be a major storyline moving forward. With Alex Bowman set to retire after the 2027 NASCAR season, Connor Zilisch is the heavy favorite to land the No. 48 car. Where does this leave Day? According to a NASCAR insider, he still might be Cup Series-bound soon.
Day should have eyes on a Cup Series ride for the 2028 season, with Spire Motorsports being one of the teams named for him, as reported by FOX Sports' Bob Pockrass. It appears that Zilisch will sign with Hendrick Motorsports, so Day's future organization seems to be uncertain.
Spire Motorsports would be the ideal landing spot. The organization has been very fast during the 2026 NASCAR season and should be around for years to come. Day will be ready
for a Cup Series ride in 2028, and Spire Motorsports might be his eventual destination for a rookie campaign.
