WELCOME, N.C. — Richard Childress Racing announced Monday that NASCAR Xfinity Series championship contender Jesse Love will make two additional NASCAR Cup Series starts in the No. 33 Chevrolet this season.
Love will pilot the C4 Ultimate Energy Chevrolet this Sunday at Kansas Speedway and Aug. 16 at Richmond Raceway.
Less than a month removed from his Cup Series debut at Bristol Motor Speedway, Love posted an impressive top-20 qualifying effort and completed all laps in his inaugural start.
The 20-year-old continued to gain experience behind the wheel of a premier series vehicle, when Love piloted the No. 62 Chevrolet for Beard Motorsports at Texas Motor Speedway.
“I’m looking forward to being back behind the wheel of the No. 33 C4 Ultimate Energy Chevrolet this weekend at Kansas,” said Love. “Kansas has been a great track for me throughout my career and to have the opportunity to run the Cup car consecutive weeks on a mile-and-a-half track is going to be valuable experience. The focus for these races is to continue learning and understanding how this car feels compared to other cars that I’ve raced in the past.”
Love currently holds the fourth position in the Xfinity Series driver championship point standings.
Through 12 races in his full-time campaign, the Menlo Park, California native has earned one win, two poles, three top-five, and eight top-10 finishes, while leading 156 laps.
Nutrabolt, owner of C4®, is the No. 1 selling global pre-workout brand and one of the fastest growing energy drink companies in the country.
