NASCAR Insiders Reveal Details On 'Evolving Situation' After RAM Announcement
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. The entry of Stellantis' RAM Trucks into the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series in 2026 was announced at the Michigan International Speedway on Sunday. However, the brand still remains without a team, and details of how it would go racing are yet to be announced. The Athletic's Jeff Gluck and Jordan Bianchi revealed RAM's approach to the entry and why its participation is equally important for other automakers. RAM dropped a bombshell at the Cup Series race, making it the first OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) to join the sport since Toyota introduced its Tundra in 2004. Tim Kuniskis, CEO of RAM, spoke of a "solid plan" for its NASCAR program. Newsweek Sports reported his statement: "For more than a decade, customers and our dealer network asked about getting back into NASCAR. The desire was always there, but we didn't have a plan that delivered the last tenth and following just didn't fit our DNA. Now we have a solid plan that will set us apart from the field and will bring fresh new interest and engagement to America's Motorsport." A general view of the Ram announcement that its brand will return to NASCAR competition, scheduling a Craftsman Truck Series campaign beginning in 2026 on the midway prior to the NASCAR Cup Series FireKeepers Casino... A general view of the Ram announcement that its brand will return to NASCAR competition, scheduling a Craftsman Truck Series campaign beginning in 2026 on the midway prior to the NASCAR Cup Series FireKeepers Casino 400 at Michigan International Speedway on June 08, 2025 in Brooklyn, Michigan. More"There will be more details on our NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series program later this year. We are undoubtedly having fun with this project, and I truly look forward to sharing information on our team and how getting back on track relates to the future of Ram performance." He added: "We're looking for a date to the prom right now. So how am I going to get to Cup? That's going to depend on how I get to Truck. So however we get to Truck is going to obviously weigh heavily on 'do I have a path to Cup?' Our intention is not to do a one-hit wonder and go to Truck and not to Cup. That's not our plan." Speaking on The Teardown podcast, Bianchi elaborated on RAM's approach, revealing that their plans are yet to be decided. He said: "It is very much still TBD. Now there's directions they're heading in on a couple fronts on the team side of things, but to say that certainly a deal is not done and it is an evolving situation for sure." RAM's announcement at Michigan was allowed, despite the track being linked to rival brand Chevrolet. This is a big sign that other automotive manufacturers welcome RAM's entry into the sport. Gluck explained: "It's so important like that, just to underscore this, why the other manufacturers even want them in too, it increases the competition. Because this is a Chevy track. Each track has a manufacturer alliance, like a pace car branding, all that stuff. "This is a Chevy track, RAM made their big announcement by running down the front stretch with this contraption thing and spinning the truck. Chevy let them do that because they want them in there. They want the competition. It's good for the whole sport."

Danica Patrick Announces Relationship Status After Aaron Rodgers Claims
Danica Patrick left no doubt about her relationship status during a recent podcast interview. Patrick, 43, has largely kept quiet about her current dating life, though she did have plenty to say last month about her past high-profile relationship with NFL star Aaron Rodgers. In a new appearance on the "Believe in the Good" podcast with Haley Dillon, the wife of NASCAR driver Ty Dillon, Patrick confirmed she is unattached when Dillon asked about her personal life. 'Are you single right now?' Dillon asked, to which Patrick replied, 'Yeah.' "I'm going to be interested to see who's sliding into my DMs to get to your DMs," Dillon joked as Patrick laughed. Patrick has been in several relationships with public figures, both during and after her days as a competitive race car driver. She was married to Paul Edward Hospenthal from 2005 until their divorce in 2013. Patrick also dated NASCAR driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr. from 2012-17 and Rodgers from 2018-20. During an appearance on 'The Sage Steele Show" in May, Patrick raised eyebrows when she accused the four-time NFL MVP of being "emotionally abusive." 'Because it was sudden, it felt like. It was my life. So like when you live with somebody, it's your whole life,' Patrick said. 'And because the nature of the relationship was emotionally abusive, so that wore me down to nothing.' Patrick went on to claim Rodgers "leaves a trail of blood" and appeared to make reference to his much-publicized NFL exits from the Green Bay Packers and New York Jets. 'People could never imagine that I would lack … any confidence or belief in the simple things about who I am. Everything was torn to bits,' Patrick added, via People. 'Yeah, he leaves a trail of blood. I don't think I'm saying too much earth-shattering stuff after we — there's been enough out there." Following her breakup with Rodgers, Patrick was in a relationship with American businessman Carter Comstock from 2021 to 2022.

Aaron Rodgers makes big announcement during first day with the Steelers
After photos of Aaron Rodgers wearing a ring on his left hand caused speculation that the NFL quarterback is married, the 41-year-old responded to the rumors. During a news conference following his first official day with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Rodgers was asked about the ring on his left ring finger. Rodgers, seemingly reluctantly, confirmed to the reporter that 'it's a wedding ring.' After being congratulated, the quarterback was asked 'how long' he's been married. 'A couple months ago,' Rodgers responded. In years past, Rodgers has been publicly and romantically linked to actress Olivia Munn, NASCAR driver Danica Patrick and actress Shailene Woodley. In his Netflix series, 'Aaron Rodgers: Enigma,' the quarterback commented on those high-profile relationships, saying he 'didn't do myself any favors with some of the girls I dated after that that were in the public eye.' As a result, Rodgers has been somewhat tight-lipped about his current relationship. While a guest on 'The Pat McAfee Show' in April, Rodgers revealed that he was in a serious relationship but did not share who he was dating. 'I'm in a different phase of my life,' Rodgers told McAfee. 'I'm 41 years old. I'm in a serious relationship. I have off-the-field stuff going on that requires my attention. I have personal commitments not knowing what my future was going to look like after last year that are important to me.'
