I think everybody's seen the rumors of Chase Briscoe's getting into 19. I think you could probably expect an announcement on that in the next week or so...You know, you're gonna steal somebody? Well, that's gonna cost you a lot of money. And signing somebody like Chase Briscoe - might not cost you a lot of money.
Freddie Kraft said via Door Bumper Clear podcast.

The SHR driver had also teased the that the final decision about his new team will be announced soon. It would be interesting to see who will replace Truex Jr. and joining the Toyota pace of Bubba Wallace in 2025 season.
