Ahead of the upcoming NASCAR Cup Series battles, a major shakeup has hit the Trackhouse Racing garage. Shane van Gisbergen is set to be joined by Blake Harris, who previously worked with Alex Bowman on the #48 Chevrolet Camaro, marking a fresh tactical chapter for the squad.
This major transition follows the departure of the New Zealander's former crew chief Stephen Doran, who chose to move to Spire Motorsports alongside Michael McDowell. Harris brings immense experience to the #97 team, having spent four seasons at Hendrick Motorsports and securing a memorable street race victory on the streets of Chicago.
During his tenure with Trackhouse, Doran and van Gisbergen enjoyed stellar success together, collecting five race victories and seven pole positions in the fiercely competitive NASCAR Cup Series. Their partnership reached high milestones, including a breakthrough victory in Mexico City that underlined their championship potential.
Reflecting on his departure, Doran admitted that the timing felt completely right to return to Spire, expressing deep gratitude for his time within the Trackhouse family and praising his former driver as a world-class competitor both on and off the asphalt. Meanwhile, Spire co-owner Jeff Dickerson welcomed the reunion with open arms, anticipating massive gains as preparations for the 2027 season get underway.
With the opening round of the NASCAR Cup Series scheduled to flag off at Daytona in February, all eyes will be on how quickly Harris and Van Gisbergen can forge a winning synergy. Fine-tuning race strategies and race-day execution will be paramount as they chase crucial championship points.
