Austin Hill will drive multiple NASCAR Cup Series races for Richard Childress Racing in 2024, RCR announced April 5.
Hill will drive the No. 33 with sponsorship from United Rentals.
His first race is at Texas Motor Speedway.
Hill competes full time for RCR in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, driving its No. 21.
“United Rentals has supported me throughout all of the key moments of my racing career so far, which makes their involvement in my upcoming NASCAR Cup Series starts for Richard Childress Racing that much more special,” Hill said in a team release. “I’m happy to have another opportunity to race in the Cup Series for RCR.
“The amount of success that we’ve been able to accomplish together in the Xfinity Series makes me excited for this slate of races. It’s not going to be easy, competing against the best drivers on Sundays, but I’m thankful to Richard, everyone at RCR, and United Rentals for allowing this Cup Series schedule to come to life. Racing a Next Gen Chevrolet at a mile-and-a-half will be a new challenge, but one that I’m looking forward to.”
