Alex Bowman’s NASCAR Cup Series<\/a> future had been uncertain, but that’s no longer the case.<\/p>\n

The driver of the No. 48 Chevrolet Camaro<\/a> for Hendrick Motorsports has signed a one-year extension to stay with the team in 2027.<\/p>\n

However, after that, the 33-year-old will retire from racing full-time.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019ve spent a lot of time thinking about what\u2019s next, and this feels like the right decision at the right time,” Bowman said in a statement. “The sport asks a lot of you, and I\u2019ve learned it\u2019s important to listen to your body and make the right choices for yourself. To say I\u2019m incredibly grateful to Mr. Hendrick, our partners at Ally and Chevrolet, and everyone at Hendrick Motorsports would be an understatement. They believed in me and gave me the biggest opportunity of my life.<\/p>\n

“My focus now is on making the most of my time on the racetrack and competing for wins. We still have a lot to accomplish, and I want to close my career on a high note for our team and our fans. To have the chance to do that with this organization and these people is really special.”<\/p>\n

Bowman has battled injuries the last few years. Concussion-like symptoms ruled him out of five races during the 2022 season, while a broken vertebra sustained in a sprint car crash<\/a> forced him to miss three races the following season. He also missed four races this season while dealing with vertigo.<\/p>\n

The Tucson native has eight career wins, four of which came in the 2021 season.<\/p>\n

This season has been a tough one for the No. 48. He’s 29th in the standings with an average finishing position of 21.765, which would be his worst since the 2015 season, before he joined Hendrick Motorsports.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
