Kaulig Racing Makes A Driver Change | Chicagoland RETURNING to NASCAR Schedule

Kaulig Racing makes a surprise mid-season driver swap, Josh Williams is out, and Carson Hocevar steps in. But that’s not all—SVG wins his first oval in the U.S., the Xfinity program fires back at shutdown rumors, and Chicagoland is officially back on the radar. This is one of those episodes where a lot is changing fast.

• Why did Kaulig release Josh Williams now, and what does it mean for their future?
• Is Spire Motorsports quietly making moves to absorb or partner with Kaulig’s Xfinity operation?
• What does Shane van Gisbergen’s first oval win actually signal for his NASCAR future?
• And how real is the Chicagoland return—and could it just be a placeholder before the next big international move?

From driver drama to schedule twists, this one covers a lot. The fate of Kaulig’s Xfinity program might hinge on what happens next with Spire. The future of Chicagoland might depend on fan turnout in one crucial race. And the future of SVG? That’s getting more real with every lap.
