2025 Fantasy Outlook
The first season with Richard Childress Racing and the No. 8 Chevrolet team was a success. Busch didn't advance as far into the playoffs as he would have liked, but he still racked up three victories (a four-season high) and 17 Top-10 finishes. It all added up to a 14th-place finish in the points, but the performance was markedly improved over his last season with Joe Gibbs Racing in 2022. The big question surrounding this driver and team for 2024, is how much can they improve? Busch and crew chief, Randall Burdett, had some pretty good accomplishments together last year, but they lacked week-to-week consistency. That is the missing ingredient for more Top 10's and a deeper drive into the playoffs. Busch is still capable of 3-to-5 wins and north of 20 Top-10 finishes as a driver. The ability to make that happen is largely going to fall on Burdett and the rest of the No. 8 team. Read Past Outlooks

Crash and DNF in Mexico
Busch crashed and finished 37th in the Viva Mexico 250 NASCAR Cup Series race at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez on Sunday afternoon.
ANALYSIS
After qualifying a reasonable 11th-place on the starting grid, Busch would run into trouble early on the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez circuit. A caution on lap 7 for a multi-car incident involving both Busch and Kyle Larson as well as some other drivers would bring out the yellow flag. The No. 8 Chevrolet would be heavily damaged and forced to retire after contact with several other cars. It was just Busch's second DNF of the season.
