Derrick Finley will serve as crew chief for Ryan Preece's No. 60 team at RFK Racing, bringing extensive technical experience to the organization's newly-established full-time third entry.

Finley, who joined RFK Racing in 2022, previously led the No. 60 team during its part-time Stage 60 program in 2024, overseeing entries at the Daytona 500 with David Ragan, Sonoma Raceway with Cam Waters, and the Chicago street course with Joey Hand.

"We're thrilled to have Derrick lead the No. 60 team," said RFK driver and co-owner Brad Keselowski. "His experience and technical knowledge of the sport will play a crucial role in the initial development and growth of the No. 60 team."

Finley's NASCAR career includes roles as director of operations, technical director, and competition director across multiple teams. He holds a mechanical engineering degree from the University of New Mexico.

"I am incredibly excited to lead the No. 60 team," said Finley. "I'm looking forward to working with Ryan and the entire team. It's a great opportunity to help start up a new team as we continue to grow at RFK Racing."

Preece, who joins RFK Racing after two seasons with Stewart-Haas Racing, expressed confidence in Finley's ability to integrate the team into RFK's established processes and procedures, marking their first collaboration together.
