23XI Racing signs Riley Herbst for 2025 Cup season

23XI Racing, co-owned by NBA legend Michael Jordan and three-time Daytona 500 winner Denny Hamlin, will add a third full-time car next year. Alongside the No. 23 of Bubba Wallace and the No. 45 of Tyler Reddick, they will also field the No. 35 Toyota Camry with Riley Herbst behind the wheel.

Herbst, 25, brings Monster Energy with him as a primary sponsor, which already backs 23XI's Tyler Reddick in the Cup Series, as well as Joe Gibbs Racing driver Ty Gibbs. Herbst has spent the past five seasons running every NASCAR Xfinity race with 2024 as his best showing yet with two race wins before ending the season seventh in the championship standings. He also ended the year by capturing his third career victory in the title-decider after a last-lap pass on newly crowned Xfinity Series champion Justin Allgaier.
