Ty Gibbs will make the jump to the NASCAR Cup Series full-time in 2023.
The 20-year-old driver, whose run to the Xfinity Series championship in the 2022 season was equal parts impressive and controversial, will drive the No. 54 Toyota Camry for Joe Gibbs Racing, the team announced Tuesday.
The move effectively fills the void left by Kyle Busch, who left JGR after 15 years and joined Richard Childress Racing at the end of the 2022 season. This will be the first time JGR won’t run the 18 since 1992.
