Earlier this year, it was announced that Suarez would not return to the team for the 2026 season.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Corey LaJoie leaked the news that Suarez would be driving for Spire Motorsports in the No. 7 car. LaJoie had insider information as he formerly drove for the team.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/racingnews.co\/2025\/10\/16\/corey-lajoie-leaks-the-replacement-for-justin-haley-in-2026\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Corey LaJoie leaks the replacement for Justin Haley in 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Moments ago, that leak has been confirmed. Spire Motorsports has signed Suarez to drive the No. 7 full-time in the 2026 season. <\/p>\n<p>Freeway Insurance has signed on as the anchor partner. They\u2019ll make their debut with Suarez and Spire in the 2026 Daytona 500 as the primary sponsor. <\/p>\n<p>Justin Haley is the current driver for the No. 7 at Spire.<\/p>\n<p>Daniel Suarez comments<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSpire\u2019s growth over the last few years is quite impressive,\u201d Daniel Suarez stated via the team release. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s something I have mentioned to every single member who I have talked to at Spire Motorsports. I\u2019m sure I\u2019m not the only person who can see that and I\u2019m excited to be part of it now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know that even with the growth Spire has had the last few years, it hasn\u2019t reached its full potential, just yet. There is a lot more out there to achieve, and I want to be part of that. I want to be part of that growth and use my experience to help my team, and the entire company continue to grow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Suarez added, \u201cIt\u00a0means a lot to have Freeway Insurance following me on this journey.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m very blessed to have great partners. Freeway Insurance, for sure, is one of those partners that is not just a logo on the race car but it\u2019s also a partner that has the same goals and connects with the same market I do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMore than half of Freeway\u2019s employees and customers are Spanish speakers. So, for me, that\u2019s very personal to be able to partner with a company that interacts and connects with my community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel very fortunate to not just have a partnership with them in racing, but also to share the passion that we do outside of the racetrack \u2013 connecting and making an impact in our community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/racingnews.co\/2025\/07\/09\/daniel-suarez-says-he-doesnt-feel-important-at-trackhouse-racing\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Daniel Suarez says he doesn\u2019t feel important at Trackhouse Racing<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Freeway Insurance comments<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDaniel has been an incredible ambassador for our brand,\u201d said Cesar Soriano, CEO of Freeway Insurance. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs someone who\u2019s proudly served, I believe in teamwork, discipline, and perseverance \u2014 the same qualities Daniel brings to the track every week.
