Martin Truex Jr. has continued to state that he plans to run the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series Daytona 500 despite deciding to walk away from his full-time NASCAR Cup Series driving career at the conclusion of the 2024 season. In a media availability ahead of Friday’s NASCAR Cup Series Awards Ceremony, the 2017 NASCAR Cup Series champion reaffirmed his plan to compete in the season-opening Daytona 500, a race he has still yet to win, as well as some NASCAR Xfinity Series races.
“Racing-wise, I mean, I’m going to do the Daytona 500 and looking forward to running some [NASCAR] Xfinity Series cars a bit here and there, just to have fun and see how it goes,” Truex explained. “I really enjoy that style of car, you know, low downforce, and just the older cars that we raced. So, I look forward to doing a little bit of that again, but other than that not sure. I have a lot of hobbies, and I need to catch up on those. I’m excited about that.”
