Matt DiBenedetto to drive Joe Gibbs Racing Xfinity car at Road America

jQgbwJgrQchA
NASCAR America overtime looks ahead to the next three races to determine the challenges for drivers as the playoff chase comes to a close.

Matt DiBenedetto announced Tuesday that he will drive the No. 18 Xfinity car for Joe Gibbs Racing next weekend at Road America.

Jeffrey Earnhardt was scheduled to run that car at Road America before parting ways with sponsor iK9 on Aug. 7.

This will be DiBenedetto’s first Xfinity start since 2016 when he ran 19 of the season’s 33 races. He last ran at Road America in 2014, finishing 11th for car owner Curtis Key.

DiBenedetto will be able to run Road America because the Aug. 24 race comes on the final weekend off for Cup.
