Leaked photos of the No. 77 Spire Motorsports car with an AdventHealth paint scheme as well as Kyle Larson’s No. 42 machine have already helped us piece together most of the puzzle for Thursday’s joint announcement with AdventHealth and Chip Ganassi Racing.
It’s obvious that Chastain will be running the Daytona 500 with the sponsorship on a Ganassi-backed Spire Motorsports No. 77 car.
However, a new report from Adam Stern of Sports Business Journal states that Chastain will actually run two races in the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series season for AdventHealth in the No. 77 car. In addition to the Daytona 500, Chastain will apparently run in the Coca-Cola 600 according to the report.
Stern also reports that Larson will run the AdventHealth colors in the exhibition Busch Clash event at Daytona International Speedway in February, as well as the fall Kansas event.
.@AdventHealth today will announce that it’s returning to @CGRteams for a fifth season with a slightly expanded deal in ’20.
