Dodge RAM CEO Christine McFadden recently addressed the growing speculation surrounding Tony Stewart’s possible return to the NASCAR Cup Series as a team owner in 2025. Calling the development “exciting for the sport,” McFadden emphasized Stewart’s legacy and potential to reignite interest among fans and sponsors alike. Stewart, who parted ways with Stewart-Haas Racing after the 2024 season, is reportedly in talks to launch a new team, possibly backed by Dodge, which has been absent from NASCAR since 2012.
McFadden hinted at Dodge’s serious interest in re-entering the sport, saying Stewart’s three-time championship pedigree and passionate fanbase offer a “unique competitive edge.” With 49 Cup Series victories to his name, Stewart remains a beloved figure in the NASCAR community. His recent ventures into IndyCar have kept him in the racing spotlight, and a NASCAR return would mark a major shift in the sport’s landscape.
While no formal agreement has been announced, ongoing discussions involving Hyak Motorsports and other potential partners indicate growing momentum. Fans are already speculating on how Dodge-powered cars might perform and what Stewart’s leadership could bring to a competitive field.
If confirmed, Stewart’s return with Dodge could symbolize a powerful comeback story—for both the driver and the manufacturer—reviving a legacy that many believe still has unfinished business in NASCAR. As anticipation builds, all eyes are on upcoming announcements that could redefine the 2025 Cup Series season.
