Spire Motorsports, which debuted in the NASCAR Cup Series in 2019, has made significant strides early in the 2026 season, currently ranking as the second-best Chevrolet organization. Competition director Matt McCall emphasized the team's focus on winning races and improving performance week by week. Carson Hocevar, known for his aggressive driving style, ranks 12th in the standings and has become a regular contender for top finishes, while Daniel Suárez, in his first season with Spire, has revitalized his career, performing above expectations. The team is aiming to convert their competitive spirit into race victories, recognizing that while they have made progress, there is still work to be done to achieve the speed necessary for winning races. McCall noted the importance of maintaining a positive team culture as they strive for success, indicating that winning is a clear goal for the organization this year. As Spire Motorsports continues to improve, they are becoming a noteworthy competitor in a field traditionally dominated by established teams.
