One of the biggest drivers move for the 2025 NASCAR Cup season was Noah Gragson joining Front Row Motorsports. He redeemed his career, after a disastrous rookie season in 2023, taking advantage of the opportunity offered to him by Tony Stewart and was able prove his worth yet again to secure the 2025 seat.

Noah Gragson is going to drive the iconic No:4 car, once driven by Kevin Harvick, from the next season. He will also have a much familiar crew at FRM for next season, with the team hiring many of the No:10 crew, who lost their job after SHR creased operations. He is also set to have Rodney Childers as one of the crew chiefs at FRM, who is set to work for another team.

Childers, who was the original crew chief of the No:4 team at SHR, leading them to many accomplishments, including the 2014 title, shared his feelings about seeing another driver-crew chief pair taking over the team. He admitted that it’s an odd feeling, but asserted that he happy the opportunity went to Gragson and Blickensderfer.

I’m grateful to have my crew chief, Drew, along with four members from last year’s team join Front Row Motorsports. This gives us a strong foundation to hit the ground running in the 2025 season.

Noah Gragson said.

Drew Blickensderfer is excited to get back to FRM and relive the great times he has had with Bob Jenkins’ team before. He asserted that having Gragson alongside him makes the opportunity more special for him.

I’m excited to be back with Front Row Motorsports. I had a great experience working for Bob (Jenkins) and Jerry (Freeze) before, and now returning alongside Noah makes this opportunity even more special.

Drew Blickensderfer said.

The comments from Gragson and Blickensderfer shows they have lot of hope in the potential opportunities with FRM. It would be interesting to see how the No:4 Ford team perform in the 2025 Cup series season.
