It's a shame Tony lost his passion for NASCAR. I wouldn't be surprised if Tony is never spotted at a NASCAR race again after he sells the team off for good. Same with Gene Haas.
I don't blame Tony. But as for Gene, pfft.
This is about Haas and not Stewart.
@@thomaskauser8978it's both.
Haas and Stewart have been sick of NASCAR's BS for a while now.
So long Tony@@AmericanFlyOnTheWall
Heart breaking.. my favorite team just gone
I’m crying right now
This just shows that Kevin Harvick was more integral to this team than we thought.
Honestly the prioritization of Kevin Harvick is what killed the team. How many drivers/team were almost or completely ruined because SHR only cared about Harvick.
Kevin was the main guy and the crew chief to
I think they stayed open the last few years cause of harvick being there
Harvick was Dale's predecessor.
Harvick and Kurt
Stewart Haas Racing won't be around when GTA 6 & NASCAR 25 arrive 😢
To be fair, neither will civilization.
It’s unbelievable that a few years ago in 2018, Stewart Haas had won 12 races (a quarter of the season), had all four cars in the round of 8, and at Talladega with all four cars pulling away from the rest of the pack on their own.
As a former intern there I can’t believe it
The demise of SHR reminds me of the demise of Robert Yates Racing in 2008, another iconic Ford team (ironically) that struggled with sponsorship in its final years and sold and merged their assets with Evernham and Petty to form RPM. Fast forward to 2024 and we're seeing a repeat of that with Stewart-Haas selling their entire operation.
Yuup about half of charters will go to ford team for sure without a doubt FRM , will acquire one , and then RFK racing
But sadly FRM has been doing a lot better than SHR this season and past season
Makes you wonder at Fords decisions to stick with one engine shop and if that limits the number of teams that can even be competitive. Chevy has no problems allowing multiple shops
@@hengineerboth Hendrick and Childress have an engine alliance now
Now Andretti can come into F1.
RIP SHR. You will be missed.
If only… instead, they’ll continue the futile attempts to get into F1
@@nathan1sixteenThanks for the 16 years!
The real reason is Gene needs to make his f1 team good so he avoid all the people telling him sell ti Andretti l).
Let them try. They'll know the result. If they strike a deal with Honda for NASCAR as ruined, we'll see a repeat of 2007
Andretti can come to nascar
I got into NASCAR in mid-2009, back when they were new!
Thanks for the memories, SHR. Hope they finish strong! Can't wait to see Tony's future in NHRA and outside of NASCAR!
I wonder how long Tony's Mopar deal is? Dodge is not doing well under Stellantis.
I just knew it would only be a matter of time before SHR would be out of the sport entirely. Harvick couldn't have timed his retirement any better.
Can't wait for the Danny B Rise and Fall vid
You read my mind, Colonel
And there it is. Can't say I'm surprised. But very sad to see how far this team fell.
If they shut down 2 years ago, it would've been a shock. Now not so much
man from a championship contending team to shutting down , that's sad to see
The 2020 Hollywood Casino 400 was The Catalyst of Stewart Haas Racing's impending doom
RIP Stewart-Haas Racing 2009-2024
What happened there?
@@goldosprey Harvick was chasing down Logano for the win in the end of that race, but due to the terrible 550 HP high downforce aero package, couldn't pass him. Harvick missed the Championship 4 that year simply by not winning that race.
@@racingfreak1999 well, lets not say simply because he didnt win. Yes, the 550 definitely didnt allow him to pass but Harvick had a really bad playoffs after the R16 too. Was mediocre in the R12 and R8 and only held up because he had so many playoff points. Didnt help that the team totally dropped the ball at Martinsville and they ran like mid pack all day which caused the team to lose out on points.
@@ianperry9598 Yes, you're right. I forgot how bad they were for the majority of that race up until Harvick's failed bonzai move and they were only mediocre at Texas. I was just explaining what the OP meant in regards to the Kansas race and could've worded it differently.
Tony Stewart got burned on the Kyle Larson thing and now that Kevin Harvick's not around to make his team look somewhat legitimate he's taking his ball and going home.
More like “ Took his ball… And went drag racing
It's funny how if Kyle never said the N word maybe "The Program" would've let Tony hire him for SHR. Same thing that happened with Conor Daly's sponsorship, "The Program" decided to kick him. It's not Tony's fault, he's just fed up with "The Program's" BS so he just spends time in the drag strip with his wife.
Though tbh, SHR has mid equipment since 2021. Larson wouldn't make much headway like he did with Hendrick
@@thetechfromheavenTony was clear that Ford wouldn't allow it so that's when he should have dumped Ford and never should have went in the first place
@@S.K.R.E.Inc. It's not about what Larson would have done in the equipment, he'd undoubtedly be better than what they have now though. It isn't even about whether he would have ultimately gotten Larson in the end. It's that Ford flat out told him he couldn't even pursue him. He was checked out from that point on.
I am actually crying now I am a SHR fan
Same Omg
I honestly wanted to see Stewart Haas Racing to stick around for years and beyond. But after hearing this sad announcement that there closing after 2024 it's really sad to see it go. I'm definitely going to miss the team and miss the moments they had in the sport.
Tony is having more fun drag racing
Or his new boss is forcing him to have fun in drag racing
I don't blame him
@@frankisfunny2007 he owns his own team alongside with Leah. And tbh, I do not blame Tony for having more fun in NHRA
@@frankisfunny2007seeing as he is his boss, yes, he is
@@frankisfunny2007 Tony's 😸 whipped LMFAO 😂
I’m sad.. I can’t express the feelings of this team closing. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Rip in Preeces
RIP SHR 2009-2024
I know the rumors have been around for a while but it still feels surreal
First Auto Club, now SHR 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Talk about a bombshell! But at the end of the day, it doesn’t surprise me one bit. NASCAR needs a reset when it comes to the financials. The money just isn’t there.
Yes it is
Sad way to see a dynasty end in the way it did. :(
Mix of emotions hearing this, I am sad for the employees losing their jobs and preece will most likely be out the cup series. Excited for wood brothers driver change is needed, Hope they land Chase Briscoe . Gragson to the 34. Berry will find a cup ride..
Personally for me I'm going to miss Stewart Haas Racing. I basically grew up watching that team grow to the powerhouse it was. Thank you SHR for the great memories
well makes me sad beacuse shr was my fav team
I'm not surprised, they got worse and worse every year after Kevin Harvick left and they couldn't get either of the Kyles to come there. If they got Busch or Larson(Busch with Busch beer would have been sick) they might have still be around...but the switch to Ford and just not having the horses to win with just killed this team. Sad to see them go, but they had to do something.
I think RFK buys one of the charters with help from Ford
So Noah Gragson won’t be their future? I think you cursed it
SHR ends with a nice amount of wins
but keeping that shit ass f1 team that will never go anywhere with it's budget 💀💀💀
This team won’t get too long, I guarantee
@@NexXxu the Haas F1 team is horrible
Kevin Harvick said - 6 months ago it was 4Ever. Now it's 4Sale.
Imagine telling somebody this in 2018
Wow. Wonder if the F1 team will also be affected. This is sad news.
F1 will not be affected
Gene probably got a lot of heat to sell his F1 team to Andretti Global, so he doubled down on his F1 team and said 🖕 NASCAR.
Gene wants to sell his F1 team but unlike NASCAR F1 teams have actual value and he wants to sell it for real money.
@@T.N.D.88 If he sell to Andretti saw Michael to buy the F1 Haas entry too,with the entry he avoid the $ 1M entry fee for new teams and possible headaches bcs FIA actually slam the door in he
Its sad losing four teams in the 2020 to 2024

And now stewart this teams really help my youth hood
Since since NASCAR race hub is shutting down on June 11, this makes it even sadder
Stewart-Haas Racing Announces Closure Amid Major NASCAR Changes
Breaking News: Stewart-Haas Racing to Cease Operations at Season's End
In a stunning development that has sent shockwaves through the NASCAR community, Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR) has announced that it will be closing its doors at the end of the current season. This decision marks the end of an era for one of the sport's most successful teams, co-owned by Gene Haas and Tony Stewart. Both Haas and Stewart confirmed the news today, citing a strategic shift in their business and racing priorities.
The Impact on Cup and Xfinity Series
The closure of SHR will see the discontinuation of both its Cup and Xfinity series teams. This decision affects a multitude of drivers, team members, and fans who have supported SHR through its numerous victories and championships. Despite this, there is a silver lining, as several other prominent teams in the NASCAR landscape are expected to acquire SHR's charters.
New Opportunities for 23XI, Front Row Motorsports, Jr Motorsports, and Wood Brothers
It is anticipated that 23XI Racing, Front Row Motorsports, Jr Motorsports, and the Wood Brothers will each acquire one of SHR's charters. This acquisition will allow these teams to expand their operations and bring new talent into their rosters. The reallocation of charters is a crucial element in maintaining competitive balance within the sport and providing opportunities for both established and emerging drivers.
A Bright Future for Noah Gragson
One driver who stands to benefit from these changes is Noah Gragson. Gragson, who has been making significant strides in his racing career, might find himself in an even better position with these new opportunities. His performances this season have already exceeded expectations, and with the potential for a new team backing him, his prospects look brighter than ever.
Reflections on SHR's Legacy
Since its inception, Stewart-Haas Racing has been a powerhouse in NASCAR. The team has garnered numerous accolades, including Cup Series championships and countless race wins. The legacy of SHR is built on a foundation of excellence, innovation, and a relentless pursuit of victory. As the team prepares to close its doors, the impact of its contributions to the sport will be remembered and celebrated by fans and competitors alike.
The Future of NASCAR
The closure of SHR signals a significant shift in the NASCAR landscape, one that will bring about new dynamics and opportunities. As the sport continues to evolve, the addition of charters to other teams is expected to foster growth and competition. Fans can look forward to an exciting future with fresh faces and new rivalries emerging on the track.
Conclusion
While the news of Stewart-Haas Racing's closure marks the end of an era, it also ushers in a new chapter for NASCAR. The anticipated acquisition of charters by 23XI, Front Row Motorsports, Jr Motorsports, and Wood Brothers represents a promising future for the sport. As for Noah Gragson, his upward trajectory is a testament to his skill and potential, and fans will be eagerly watching to see how he capitalizes on these new opportunities.
This statement is not intended to reflect negatively on Noah Gragson, who is transitioning to Joe Gibbs. He has outperformed the rest of the team, a point I will elaborate on shortly.
Chase Briscoe is potentially moving to the Wood Brothers’ 21, a team well-supported by Penske. His performance has surpassed expectations, making his potential move to Wood Brothers one of the best decisions I’ve witnessed in my two seasons following the sport.
On the other hand, Josh Berry and Ryan Preece have faced challenges. I’m willing to give Josh Berry some leeway as he is a rookie. However, Ryan should be stepping up his game. He’s been in NASCAR for five seasons, and this season has been unusually difficult for him. It’s disconcerting to see him struggle like this, especially considering he has outqualified his teammates in those five seasons, not trailed behind them.
America is known as the land of second chances, and Ryan Preece could seize his. What he needs is a positive attitude to make it happen.
1:47 Nice!
Silly season is coming
I hoping all four of their Cup drivers have great opportunities
I doubt that Berry and Preece will be in cup next year. Other teams are going to get those charters and are going to want to fill them with their own drivers.
@@TankSlapprI’d assume Gragson replaces Austin Dillon at RCR, Briscoe is allegedly going to the 21 at WBR, Berry will probably go to FRM who allegedly will take at least one of SHR’s charters if the charter agreement unfortunately happens. Preece I think will be the odd driver out and will probably go back to driving Whelen Modifieds where he won the championship during 2013
I think the downfall started when Tony wanted to sign Larson, but Ford rejected, he mindset is probably this “well fuck NASCAR I already made history as a driver and owner, i want a new challenge”, and now he is in NHRA and building a family.
And the final nail of coffin was Harvick retirement
Grew up a Stewart fan idk what I’m supposed to do. SHR has been my team for so long. This truly sucks so much
Follow NHRA - it's more true racing - the fastest cars make the show, no charter BS, no woke special programs to put women and ethnicities into the sport and the vibe at the events is just better. And you can still root for Tony. Go to a national event and you'll be hooked!
The gen 7 ruined everything
More like the Nascar leadership ruined everything
This really isn’t a shock if you’ve been paying attention. Gene Haas loves spending billions of dollars being F1’s proverbial backmarker. And as for Tony, his frustrations with NASCAR over the years + getting involved in the NHRA via his wife really just made him stop caring about NASCAR altogether as an owner. It’s better to see them close their doors than fade into irrelevancy
Kevin harvick looking like a genius with his retirement rn
SHR wouldn’t have shut down if he didn’t retire I believe
I also think Tony Stewart had enough when his driver got wrecked under caution by an immature Austin Hill.
I kinda expected this to be honest. Ever since Kevin left the team has incompetent drivers. Nothing like the golden drivers like kevin harvick, clint bowyer, tony stewart and kurt busch
NASCAR has been a shuffling zombie for a long time, and rotting parts are falling off.
Getting out while they can. NASCAR sucks.
I blame neither Smoke nor Haas. When NASCAR is only concerned with pleasing Joe Gibbs Racing and Hendrick Motorsports, it’s a smart move to stop throwing money into a sport you have no chance in.
Indycar/CART Busts:Juan Manuel Fangio II
this is Nascar's fault. Why own a team that just loses money even when you win?
Damn that shocks the world of NASCAR Stewart Haas Racing shutting down
Watch Gragson or Briscoe go out and win the championship
Maybe Jr can get a deal on one of those charters🤷♂️
Watch this now andretti buys the team and buys and F1 team
Let silly season begin
Something tells me that NASCAR is going to fall apart
Hopefully it doesn't hopefully we get new leadership
It's sad they've went from being championship contenders and winning races to not being competitive to shutting down it's surreal but I'm not surprised because tony has not been interested in NASCAR for sometime
Hopefully they can get one last win
Custer could let the Xfinity program go out with on last title
With this announcement the charter war has officially begun
This sucks, so terrible to see
That has to be the worst 15th anniversary present for SHR
RIP to Stewart-Haas Racing
thanks obama
It’s the end of an era Race hub gone, SHR gone, Petty isn’t even in the team name anymore, Gibbs sold shares, McDowell left front row, Rick ware racing isn’t wrecking every week. Crazy times
Sad , long time smoke fan . Now no team to cheer for .
I'm not surprised but I still feel shocked by it. Always sad to see a competitive team leave the sport. Overall SHR has improved quite a bit from last year.
I feel bad for Noah and Briscoe
Briscoe for sure he’ll be in a ford team , more than likely he’ll be with wood brothers racing #21
Noah he’ll be in a Chevy team though more than likely maybe RCR or trackhouse
, and Josh Berry either FRM or maybe RFK racing , Ryan Preece he’ll probably be in xfinity
But for sure ford wants Chase Briscoe
@@jesusleon8735nah Briscoe should reunite with RFK.
Thank you Tony Stewart thank you Jean Haas and thank you to everybody the every single driver Sparta crew team and workers there thank you😢 (2002)2009-2024
Gene not Jean.
Well we kinds knew this was coming! A lot of rumors were going around about the future for SHR, but the end is near!
My second favorite driver was there for the longest in the 4. It is sad to see thwm go. They had Aric Almirola and Kevin go. As well as all their emploees.
Oh yeah, the team has a YT channel, and I'm not too sure what's going to happen THAT.
R.i.p Stewart-Hass, 2002-2025
Harvick leaves=shut down
But on a serious note this is insane news i mean 4 potential race winners are teamless
I highly doubt that 69 wins number will change with the way they're running.
This is both shocking and not suprising. I predicted that SHR was going to sell 2 of there charters, but now, there selling all 4 of them. My predictions are that Briscoe will go to either the Wood Brothers or Front Row, Josh Berry, may or may not go back to the Xfinity Series, Noah Gragson and the third charter will go to Trackhouse, and I really don't know where Ryan Preece will go. Maybe to Wreck Ware, to the lower divisions, or just dissapear as a whole.
I wouldn't be surprised if Preece go back to the Modified Series. Probably misses that series.
Preece probably isn't going back down though. He worked so hard to come back up to the Cup series and he's gone down to the lower series twice.
The death has been slow and painful. May we have 14 seconds of silence.
Sad.
I think charters will go to 23XI, RFK, Front Row and Trackhouse
Its really disappointing considering how much young talent is on that team right now. I was hoping Dale Jr would come in and save them, but oh well....
RIP SHR. but, this is actually an opportunity for Andretti Autosport to get into nascar.
Tony Stewart is a drag racer now,he's probably fed up with NASCARs bullshit.
One of the best teams that us out there going away for good. With both owners having other things to do than nascar I seen it coming for a while but not this soon though. I thought maybe in 3 years later is when I seen it happening
Something tells me that this will create a domino effect that HAAS F1 will be closed too
Still think of Tony hadn't killed that guy back in 2014 might be a different story
I’ve heard that Briscoe will be going to Wood Brothers. He’ll probably do better than Harrison
One less team in 2025 in cup and xfinity. Smoke walks away from Nascar. Thanks Nascar for dicking around.
Wow, I was not expecting this to happen to see 2000 2420 store storehouse racing shutting down at the end of 2024. I was hoping for them to get more sponsors or more people to join storehouse racing that they don’t have to shut down to close business while apparently they don’t have apparently they can’t find anymore. Maybe I don’t know but wow, they’ll be sad to see them leave and see different drivers racing drivers with different teams teams next year in 2025. It’s OK but either way I’ll be sad to see boss racing leave leave.
Hm. We shoulda seen it coming. Their results went downhill for too long. Not every team can last forever. See Petty Enterprises. See Leavine Racing. See Furniture Row. See Michael Waltrip Racing.
Just goes to show you Tony cares more about NHRA than NASCAR!!!!
Thank you, Stewart Haas Racing 🫡
Tony Stewart had enough of NASCAR'S BS a long time ago. Now, I wonder who will pay $50 million dollars each for those 4 charters?
While it generally goes without saying: running NASCAR is just stupid expensive, and you can't fault someone for looking at the sanctioning body and saying "no more" ... The sport has insisted on becoming less backyard and more F1 throughout it's history and part of the price for that is fewer teams.
Pity. I've seen the fall of teams the likes of Yates, DEI, Ganassi not too long ago, and multiple Petty ventures, but SHR is the most prominent Cup team to come and go in my adult life. It was big to hear Tony Stewart joining up with the lowly Haas NASCAR effort, really looked like a bottom-up effort. The team quickly established itself with Stewart and Newman, converting that success to a 4-team destination for title contenders and sponsor machines both.
Unfortunately a pipeline of young funded drivers never took root, which is a big necessity nowadays in the sport. They never could get that desired manufacturer support, top free agents slipped right thru their fingers, vision clashes at various levels sprouted up amongst leadership and began to drive Tony's passion elsewhere. Once the financial draws of Harvick and Almirola left, the tab drew too large for the team to carry.
Stewart’s had enough. The sports last remaining driver/owner icon is done. Nobody wants to be associated with such a non competitive, plummeting value, woke gimmick. Bubba Wallace will most certainly come to the rescue.
Nascar is taking L after L with their decision making of sorts. When Tony Stewart leaves the sport, that should tell ya something. But then again 2020 was the beginning of the end of Nascar really. Everything woke turns to well you know.
It's like when circle motorsports and the motorsports group went thier separate ways in 2017
This continues to showcase the NASCAR league not being as appealing as it once was.
The premier athletes of automobile racing no longer flock to stock car racing as they did, specifically, during the civil war of United States Open-Wheel Racing during the 1990's and early 2000's. This is shown with major sponsors and prize money accumulation highlighted through single-seater competition.
Jeff Gordon even admitted during his recent appearance on 'The Dale Jr. Download' that Hendrick Motorsports has not been profitable in over a decade.
It is a very sad day because all employees, not just drivers and crew members, are set to lose their jobs. Yet it continues to be a showcase of the times and NASCAR's failure to not only responsibly adapt, but protect themselves.
It’s a shame but I truly believe it was bound to happen. They fell like a rock after the 2020 season. I would love to have seen them build a future with the drivers they have, but I like to think that all of those drivers will get good rides and have bright futures. I also believe maybe Dale Earnhardt Jr will buy the charter and start his cup team. But I guess time can only tell.
