RFK Racing and Kaulig Racing will have touching tributes to the late Greg Biffle in the upcoming 2026 Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway. All four RFK Racing cars will carry the number font style that Biffle utilized as the driver of the No. 16 RFK Racing Ford during his NASCAR Cup Series career.

Kaulig Racing also announced that it will carry Biffle’s No. 16 font on its No. 16 car, which will be driven by A.J. Allmendinger in the Daytona 500.

Additionally, RFK Racing cars will carry a special circular memorial decal above the B-post in each race during the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series season, beginning with next weekend’s Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium.
Biffle tragically lost his life, along with six others, in a plane crash at the Statesville Regional Airport last month. For RFK Racing, honoring the legacy of Biffle, who brought so much to the history of the organization, was the right thing to do.
“Greg Biffle was more than a championship driver, he was family,” said RFK Racing Co-owner Brad Keselowski. “He helped shape who we are as an organization, and his legacy is woven into this team’s history. Returning to the iconic numeric font that defined so much of his career, and adding the season long decal to each car, are meaningful ways for us to honor Greg and carry his spirit. We can’t bring him back, but we can honor him on the track the best way we know how, all season long.”
Likewise, Kaulig Racing, which now carries the No. 16 that Biffle made famous, feels like it’s only proper to memorialize Biffle in the Great American Race.
“Greg Biffle made the No. 16 famous and was a true friend to Kaulig Racing and the whole racing community,” said Kaulig Racing Chief Executive Officer Chris Rice. “This is our way of honoring his incredible career and the person he was. When AJ Allmendinger drives this car at Daytona, we hope fans remember Greg, his family, and all the great memories he gave us.”
Over 19 seasons with RFK Racing, Biffle collected 56 NASCAR National Series wins, including 19 in the NASCAR Cup Series, and he was a champion in the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series and NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series. Biffle’s role within the company was very important.
“Greg Biffle was one of the most special drivers I’ve ever had the privilege of working with,” said team founder Jack Roush. “He gave everything he had to this organization, and together we shared some of the proudest moments in our history. Honoring Greg this season is deeply personal for all of us, and it’s important that we remember the role he played in building this team and the standard he helped set.”
NASCAR will also honor the memory of Biffle with a painted stencil of RFK Racing’s commemorative memorial decal, which will be painted in the infield grass at Bowman Gray Stadium for The Clash. In a press release, RFK Racing says future tributes for Biffle are being considered, and as any decisions are made, they will be announced at a later date.
