Christian Rose, who was scheduled to compete in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series for Niece Motorsports, is stepping back from full-time competition ahead of the season-opener at Daytona International Speedway.

Due to unforeseen sponsorship changes, Rose has relinquished driving duties of the No. 44 Chevrolet Silverado RST effective immediately but will remain associated with the organization as he continues to pursue competing in NASCAR’s National Series.

Bayley Currey, who piloted a full-time entry for Niece Motorsports last season in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, will serve as the interim driver of the No. 44 Chevrolet at Daytona.

Masked Owl Technologies, a current partner of Niece Motorsports, has stepped up to take over as the primary sponsor of the entry for Daytona.

“Unfortunately, with the high costs associated with running a race team, we had to make this difficult business decision to keep everyone’s best interests in mind,” said Cody Efaw, General Manager of Niece Motorsports. “We would love to see Christian compete for us once funding is secured on his end, and greatly appreciate our existing partners at Masked Owl Technologies for stepping up their commitment to Bayley and our company as a whole.”

The Fresh from Florida 250 at Daytona International Speedway will take place on Friday, February 14 at 7:30 PM ET on FOX Sports 1, MRN, and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Channel 90.
