NASCAR Silly Season continues to make noise in the offseason. John Hunter Nemechek has informed Front Row Motorsports that he will not be returning to the organization for the 2021 season. The team announced the news on Monday, November 16th.


"We want to thank John Hunter for being a part of Front Row Motorsports and beginning his NASCAR Cup Series career with us.” Team owner Bob Jenkins said in a statement, “He certainly helped elevate our performance this past season and brought added value to our No. 38 team. We wish him the best in the next phase in his career and he will always be a friend of ours."


Nemechek finished 27th in the standings following his rookie campaign. He earned three top-10 finishes driving the No. 38 Ford, two of which came at Talladega Superspeedway.


“I’m so thankful for the chance that Bob Jenkins, Jerry Freeze and all our partners took on myself this past season. I would like to thank every employee for the opportunity and the hard work that they put into myself and the No. 38 team at Front Row Motorsports.”


“I am grateful for my time, relationships, and all the knowledge I have gained.” Nemechek continued, “I appreciate the patience of our fans, with future plans to be announced at a later date.”


Announcements for the No. 38 FRM team will be made separately, also at a later date.
