NASCAR Cup Series driver Justin Haley has joined forces with Ram and Kaulig Racing for 2026.

Wednesday's announcement comes just days after it was revealed that Haley will no longer be driving the No. 7 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet in the Cup Series next season, instead being replaced by Daniel Suarez.

Haley has seemingly landed on his feet, however, with Kaulig confirming that he will be one of their full-time drivers when they join the Truck Series with Ram next season.

Haley previously drove for Kaulig in the Xfinity Series between 2019 and 2021, so has history with the team, even competing for a championship in the final race of the 2020 campaign.

Haley signs with Kauling Racing and Ram

The 26-year-old will now have the chance to make more history with the team, and he is very excited about his new opportunity.

“It’s a privilege to have the opportunity to race with Kaulig Racing again,” said Haley.

“Matt Kaulig believed in me from a very early point in my career, and we’ve shared a lot of success together. It’s a blessing to be back home with Kaulig and help the team forge their way on this new journey in the Truck Series with RAM.

"I’m excited to be around people who have believed in me from the start, and that will give me all the tools and resources that we need to win races and compete for championships.

"This is an opportunity I’m very proud to be a part of; our goal is to build a solid foundation early on and use that to get Matt Kaulig and Kaulig Racing their first NASCAR Championship.”

Daniel Dye signs

Haley's addition to the team was confirmed alongside another driver, with Daniel Dye also set to drive full-time with Kaulig Racing in the Truck Series in 2026.

“We’re thrilled to announce these two talented young drivers in the Kaulig RAM 1500 trucks,” said team owner Matt Kaulig.

“Justin is an important part of our past, and I’m thrilled that he is returning to be a part of our very bright future. Daniel grew up in the RAM family, so it is super cool that he gets to represent RAM in their return to NASCAR.

Both drivers have great stories to tell that align and represent what we are building here at Kaulig Racing.”

This means that three of Kaulig's drivers are now confirmed for next year, with Haley joining Dye and ARCA champion Brenden Queen.
