According to a report from NASCAR insider Bob Pockrass on May 23, 2025, Richard Childress Racing (RCR) president Torrey Galpin has spoken out firmly in support of veteran driver Kyle Busch, clarifying the team’s stance on his future amid speculation. Despite a less-than-stellar 2025 season so far—marked by just one win and a current 14th-place ranking in the Cup Series standings—Galpin reiterated the organization’s full confidence in Busch.
Galpin addressed recent rumors suggesting that Busch might be on his way out of RCR, firmly denying such claims. Instead, he confirmed that Busch has signed a multi-year contract extension, emphasizing the driver’s ongoing value to the team. Galpin highlighted Busch’s accomplishments, particularly his two Cup Series championships and his strong appeal to sponsors and fans, noting that those qualities continue to make him an essential part of RCR’s long-term plans.
The announcement has sparked mixed reactions from NASCAR fans across social media. While many applauded the decision, pointing to Busch’s proven track record and leadership, others questioned whether his recent results justified such a strong commitment. Some fans expressed concerns over his on-track struggles and whether RCR should consider investing in younger talent.
Busch, meanwhile, responded to the public vote of confidence with gratitude. As he readies himself for the upcoming Coca-Cola 600, he remains focused on turning his season around and helping RCR push for playoff contention. Galpin’s clear support appears to have quieted the swirling rumors, at least for now, as the team aims to realign and chase success in the remaining races of 2025.
