Brad Keselowski set the record straight on his team's commitment to Ford amid rumors of a potential switch to Dodge. On June 2026, Keselowski stated that RFK Racing has a multi-year agreement with Ford.

What happened?

RFK Racing owner Brad Keselowski addressed the rumors directly, shutting down speculation about a new partnership with Dodge.

The rumors started after a report by Jordan Bianchi stated that Dodge had internally sourced an engine supplier solution for a potential 2027 Cup Series entry.

Why it matters for Brad Keselowski

Keselowski's statement preserves a foundational NASCAR partnership, as RFK Racing has competed exclusively under the Ford banner for nearly four decades.

RFK Racing president Chip Bowers confirmed the team's plans to field a three-car operation starting in the 2027 NASCAR Cup Series season.

What comes next?

Bowers stated that the team will find a third charter, and if not, they will run an unchartered "open" entry that must qualify for the field on raw speed each week.

As of late June 2026, Dodge has not officially confirmed a return to the NASCAR Cup Series, and industry insiders consider Kaulig Racing the primary frontrunner to become Dodge's flagship program.

Brad Keselowski's NASCAR team is fully prepared to field an unchartered entry if they cannot acquire a third charter before the 2027 Daytona 500.

The speculation will now shift toward Ryan Preece's No. 60 entry, which is under lease from Rick Ware Racing for the current year.

Keselowski wrote on X: "For those asking- RFK racing has multi year agreement with @fordracing and a commitment from their leadership to return the program to a championship contender."

The statement effectively ended the speculation about RFK Racing's manufacturer alignment, reaffirming their commitment to Ford.

Bowers said: "We're going to be a tier one team, and you can't do that running a two-car operation, so we will find a third charter."

The team has already communicated their plans to their staff and organization, and they have wholesale support from their ownership.

Keselowski's statement and Bowers' confirmation of the team's plans have provided clarity on RFK Racing's future in the NASCAR Cup Series.

The team's commitment to Ford and plans for a three-car operation in 2027 will be closely watched by fans and industry insiders alike.

As the NASCAR Cup Series continues, Brad Keselowski and RFK Racing will look to build on their success and compete at the highest level.

With their plans in place, the team is ready to take on the challenges of the 2027 season and make a strong run for the championship.
