What’s Happening?
On Thursday, fans noticed something missing from Hailie Deegan’s Instagram bio, AM Racing, causing many to assume that she had removed them from her bio. We could not confirm whether or not AM Racing was on her bio before Thursday, but as of this writing, she still follows AM Racing on Instagram, one of her most active social media accounts.
- This comes after Deegan lost her ride at AM Racing for this weekend’s Chicago Street Race. Joey Logano will race in Deegan’s place in the No. 15 car. AM Racing Team President Wade Moore cited a lack of performance in the first half of the season and intended to use Logano’s start to gain “knowledge and feedback” for the second half of the season. No word was given on whether or not Deegan will continue to race for the team.
- Deegan has struggled this season in the Xfinity Series. She currently sits 27th in points with no top-10 finishes, both the lowest marks amongst full-time drivers. She also has only three top-20 finishes and has not finished better than 25th since switching crew chiefs from Joe Williams to Matt Lucas.
- Fans are openly wondering about Deegan’s future after being replaced for this weekend. However, no mention has been made about her future with the team beyond Chicago.
