Riley Herbst to Run Daytona 500, Select Cup Races for Rick Ware Racing in 2024
Riley Herbst, who scored a top-10 finish in last year’s Daytona 500, will return to the Great American Race in 2024 as the driver of the No. 15 Rick Ware Racing Ford Mustang. Herbst will carry primary sponsorship from Monster Energy in the event.
The 24-year-old driver scored two top-10 finishes in four NASCAR Cup Series starts a season ago.
“I’ve grown a lot as a racecar driver, especially this past year,” Herbst said. “I put in the work and try to maximize every opportunity, and I feel like last year that hard work and determination paid off. We were really strong at the end of the year. We never finished lower than fourth in our last five Xfinity Series races. I didn’t want the season to end. I’ve kind of been chomping at the bit to get this year started, so to be able to get back to Daytona and run the 500 is something I’m definitely looking forward to.”
