Kurt Busch will remain with Chip Ganassi Racing for at least a few more years. According to an announcement from Chip Ganassi Racing at Texas Motor Speedway on Saturday, Busch has signed a multi-year contract extension to remain driver of the #1 CGR Chevrolet in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series.

CGR also announced a multi-year extension of its deal with sponsor Monster Energy on Saturday.

"We couldn’t be more pleased to be making this announcement,” CGR owner Chip Ganassi said. "We have developed a great relationship with [CEO] Rodney Sacks and everyone at Monster. We look forward to this partnership lasting for a very long time. As for Kurt, I must say that I have been nothing but impressed with him both in and outside of the car. He has such great instincts behind the wheel, has been tremendous with all of our partners, and everyone on the shop floor feeds off his intensity on the track and his enthusiasm off it."

Busch joined Ganassi ahead of the 2019 season, initially signing a one-year contract. At that time, he said his future as a NASCAR driver would depend on his 2019 season. Through the first 33 races with CGR, Busch has a win at Kentucky Speedway and six top-fives and 17 top-10 finishes, including the win.

“Chip made me an offer that I couldn’t refuse,” Busch said. For me, personally, it is the fun and refreshing atmosphere working with [crew chief] Matt McCall and all the team here at Chip Ganassi Racing. All signs pointed toward, ’Let’s keep going; let’s keep winning.’ It has also been the fans, continuing to work with Monster Energy, the chance to be part of the Next Gen car introduction in 2021, along with building on our successes in 2019 that, together, makes it an easy decision to continue here at Chip Ganassi Racing. Monster has been with me for nearly a decade and they are so much fun to work with; it is just a natural fit. The outreach of fans to me this year has been inspiring to hear all of them encourage me to keep racing. Additionally, I have enjoyed sending veterans and active-duty military to the races this year through our relationship with VetTix.org. This is a chance for me to continue being part of something that I have really enjoyed.”

Busch has 31 Cup Series wins in 681-career series races, dating back to a partial schedule in 2000. He has been a full-time Cup Series driver since 2001, driving for teams including Roush Fenway Racing, Team Penske, Phoenix Racing, Furniture Row Racing and Stewart-Haas Racing. He won the 2004 Cup Series championship with with the Roush organization.
