who does daniel suarez drive for

Daniel Suárez drives for Spire Motorsports in the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series.

He's piloting the No. 7 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, marking a fresh chapter after five seasons with Trackhouse Racing, where he was replaced by Connor Zilisch. This move, announced in October 2025, pairs him with teammates Michael McDowell and Carson Hocevar on a growing team backed by TWG Global.

Recent Career Shift

Suárez's transition to Spire came after a frustrating 2025 season at Trackhouse, finishing 28th in points with two top-fives but nine crash-related DNFs—no wins since early last year.

Spire, expanding since 2019, sees Suárez as a key to unlocking potential; he's a two-time Cup winner and NASCAR's only foreign-born national champion (2016 Xfinity Series).

Freeway Insurance, his prior sponsor, followed as the anchor partner on the No. 7 car.

Team and 2026 Outlook

Spire Motorsports has shown promise lately, with 15 top-fives since 2019 (six in 2025 alone) and recent poles, though their last Cup win was a 2019 rain- shortened Daytona race.

Suárez praised the team's "impressive growth," aiming to leverage his experience for better results amid NASCAR's competitive free-agency buzz.

As of early 2026, FOX Sports lists him firmly with Spire's No. 7 Chevy.
