Chase Briscoe will drive Joe Gibbs Racing’s No. 19 in the NASCAR Xfinity Series for at least one race this season, JGR announced Jan. 28.
Briscoe will enter the No. 19 at Charlotte Motor Speedway with sponsorship from Lance.
The company is serving as a full-season associate sponsor on Briscoe’s NASCAR Cup Series ride for the team this year as well.
“Having Lance crackers on board this season is really exciting,” Briscoe said in a team release. “I feel like their brand fits perfectly with our team and our sport and even my family since we are always on the go. I’m looking forward to representing them on and off the track in 2025.”
Briscoe is the second driver announced for JGR’s No. 19 in 2025, following Justin Bonsignore, who will return to the car for five events.
In 2024, Briscoe earned one win, three top fives and nine top 10s in the Cup Series while with Stewart-Haas Racing.
The Charlotte appearance will mark his first Xfinity race since 2022. He has 11 wins, 31 top fives and 54 top 10s in 86 series starts since 2018.
