Trackhouse Racing announced a multiyear contract extension for Daniel Suárez on Wednesday, which will keep the Monterrey Mexico native as the driver of the No. 99 Chevrolet Camaro for the foreseeable future.
Suárez's incredible performance off the track, and attitude off the track are what led to making the extension an easy decision for the race team.
“Obviously, everyone at Trackhouse Racing is pleased with the performance and professionalism of Daniel both on and off the track,” said team owner Justin Marks. “Culture has been of prime importance since the idea of Trackhouse existed only on a whiteboard in an office. Daniel has fulfilled every expectation and we look forward to the future. The best is yet to come."
Suárez calls the Trackhouse Racing team his home.
"Trackhouse is my home and I am very happy with this announcement," said Suárez in a team release. "We are building something special on the No. 99 team and at Trackhouse Racing. We can't wait to get the season started Sunday."
The team did not divulge any details about the contract extension other than to say it is for multiple seasons.
This past season, the 31-year-old racer found victory lane for the first time in his NASCAR Cup Series career at Sonoma Raceway. Suárez also competed in the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs for the first time in his six-year Cup Series career.
At the end of the season, Suárez had racked up six top-five finishes, 13 top-10s and was ranked 10th in the year-end championship standings -- all of which were career-bests for the racer.
Trackhouse had both of its cars make it into the Playoffs in 2022, as Ross Chastain finished runner-up in the championship battle in the No. 1 Chevrolet Camaro.
