Peacock Backs Spire In Phoenix Cup Finale

CONCORD, N.C. — Spire Motorsports will carry primary backing from Peacock — NBCUniversal’s streaming service — on its No. 77 Chevrolet Camaro driven by Justin Haley in Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series finale at Arizona’s Phoenix Raceway.

“We’re thrilled to close out the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series season with our friends at Peacock with an absolutely incredible paint scheme,” said Spire Motorsports co-owner T.J. Puchyr. “NBC has provided robust and compelling NASCAR coverage since picking up its portion of the schedule in June at Nashville Superspeedway. Given all NBC does for the sport, we’re proud to fly the Peacock flag in Sunday’s season finale. Spire Motorsports prides itself on bringing exciting and vibrant paint schemes to the track and I think our design team knocked it out of the park with this one. We can’t wait to unload and finish out the season with a solid run at Phoenix.”

Haley earned his lone Cup Series victory in stunning fashion behind the wheel of Spire Motorsports No. 77 Chevrolet on July 7, 2019 at Daytona Int’l Speedway. Over the last three seasons, he has made 35 starts on NASCAR’s senior circuit, tallying one top-five and trio of top-10 finishes.

While Sunday’s start will be his last for Spire Motorsports, Haley’s presence will be felt across the organization indefinitely.

“Justin Haley has been a staple with Spire Motorsports since we began this adventure and we’ll never forget celebrating our first Cup win with him at Daytona,” added Puchyr. “He’s done everything we’ve ever asked of him, and then some. Justin has an amazing opportunity in front of him with Kaulig Racing in the Cup Series next year. My business partner Jeff Dickerson and I are beyond proud of him and grateful for all he has done to help our team grow. We’ll always be close by and wish him only the very best as he moves into a full-time Cup ride next season.”
