2025 Hopes and Expectations

Jesse Love is coming off of an impressive Rookie of the Year winning season, and will hope to build on his quick success.  Austin Hill might not be the most liked in the garage, but it’s hard to argue with his results.  He has won at the season-opening Daytona race three years in a row.  Can he kick off 2025 with a bang and go for the four-peat?  Both drivers would love to win more regularly.  Love will want to challenge for a playoff spot, while RCR will hope that Hill can challenge for the championship.
