I found this really surprising, Justin has had a really solid season this year, he's kept up largely with AJ and is distantly in the conversation for the final transfer spots in the playoffs. I really thought he would have been re-signed.
Could just be as simple as Kaulig balking at paying Justin a fair wage when they have the likely much cheaper Chandler Smith waiting, and Rick Ware having surprisingly deep pockets if you consider his diverse portfolio of race teams now. However, you got rumors SVG wants to move to NASCAR as soon as next year, through Kaulig's close RCR relationship you got Austin Hill and Brodie Kostecki, this seat could be a have a lot of potential suitors sniffing around it.
The other question I guess is what promises Rick Ware made to Haley about improving that team in the longterm for him to sign a multi-year contract rather than just a one off hoping something better (like almost any other team) comes open?
