Notes
  1. The No. 51 car is officially listed on paper as Petty Ware Racing because they have a long-term partnership with Richard Petty Motorsports to use one of the charters they own. However, RPM is not involved with operating or helping this team out at the races in any way.
  2. Entry will be fielded in a collaboration with Chip Ganassi Racing.
  3. Entry will be fielded in a collaboration with StarCom Racing.

Teams
  • On July 23, 2020, it was reported that Leavine Family Racing owner Bob Leavine solicited bids for the team due to the financial fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic.[69] On August 4, Leavine confirmed that his team has been sold and would cease operations at the end of the 2020 season.[70] On August 11, the team's charter was officially sold to Spire Motorsports, which would be used to field a second full-time car in 2021 (which would end up being the No. 7 of Corey LaJoie).[71][72] With its purchase of Leavine Family Racing's assets, Spire Motorsports will expand into a two-car operation in 2021. On August 24, the team announced that they would be looking for two full-time drivers for the season.[73]
  • On September 1, 2020, it was reported that Germain Racing owner Bob Germain was exploring conversations for a potential sale of the team due to lack of sponsorship, as their contract with primary sponsor GEICO expired at the end of the 2020 season and it was confirmed four days later that they would not return for the 2021 season.[74] Their charter was later put up for bid, and was purchased on September 21, and as a result, Germain ceased operations at the end of the 2020 season.[41][72]
  • On September 21, 2020, retired NBA player and Charlotte Hornets owner Michael Jordan announced that he and Denny Hamlin would be forming 23XI Racing with Bubba Wallace as the driver after purchasing the charter from Germain Racing, which closed down after the 2020 season.[41][72]

  • On October 8, 2020, it was revealed that Spire Motorsports bought a third charter, which they will use for the No. 77 in 2021 after the team leased the original charter for the No. 77 to Trackhouse for 2021.[75] Upon further reports on December 30, it was revealed that this third charter for Spire came from JTG Daugherty Racing for the No. 37, which will now be non-chartered in 2021.[77][72]
  • On October 22, 2020, Go Fas Racing owner Archie St. Hilaire announced that the team would scale down to a part-time schedule in 2021. Joe Falk will continue to own half of the team's charter while St. Hilaire transfers his half to Falk's new business partner.[62] The following day, it was announced that B. J. McLeod and Matt Tifft had purchased Go Fas Racing's ownership stake in the charter, and it would be moved from the No. 32 to McLeod's No. 78, meaning that car will run full-time with a charter in 2021.[26] On November 20, McLeod and Tifft announced the team's name as Live Fast Motorsports, with a technical alliance with Stewart-Haas Racing.[27]
  • On October 28, 2020, Hendrick Motorsports announced that the No. 88 team would be renumbered to the No. 5 in 2021.[5]

J. Yeley running part-time in partnerships with Premium Motorsports and BK Racing as well as one race by themselves in the 2018 Coca-Cola 600.
  • On December 28, 2020, The Money Team Racing, which is co-owned by Floyd Mayweather Jr., was reported to be negotiating a partnership with Spire Motorsports in 2021. The deal will reportedly have TMTR co-brand one of Spire's two cars before leasing the latter team's second charter to run full-time in 2022.[80]
  • On December 30, 2020, Bob Pockrass reported that Wood Brothers Racing purchased the charter they had leased from Go Fas Racing since 2017.[81][72]
  • On February 3, 2021, MBM Motorsports announced that NASCAR approved its number change from No. 49 to No. 13, which it had requested after the demise of Germain Racing.[82]

  • On September 9, 2020, Matt Kenseth mentioned on Sirius XM's Late Shift that he would more than likely not return to the Chip Ganassi Racing No. 42 team in 2021.[86] On September 21, 2020, Chip Ganassi Racing announced that Ross Chastain would replace Kenseth in 2021.[3]
  • On September 10, 2020, Bubba Wallace announced that he would not be back in the Richard Petty Motorsports No. 43 in 2021.[87] On September 21, it was made official that he will be the driver of the 23XI Racing No. 23 car.[41]

  • On November 8, 2020, Ryan Ellis announced that if sponsorship could be found, he would drive the now-part-time No. 32 for Go Fas Racing in 2021, including at the Daytona 500.

Manufacturers

Sponsorship
  • On September 5, 2020, it was revealed that GEICO would not return to sponsor the Germain Racing No. 13 team in 2021, although they would remain a premier partner of the NASCAR Cup Series.[74]
  • On October 20, 2020, HighPoint Technology was announced to join Chase Briscoe in moving from Stewart-Haas Racing's No. 98 Xfinity Series car to their No. 14 Cup Series car in 2021.[32]

  • On January 19, 2021, Dixie Vodka was announced as the sponsor of the Stewart-Haas Racing No. 41 for two races.[107]
  • On January 19, 2021, Bass Pro Shops and Black Rifle Coffee Company were announced as the sponsors of the Gaunt Brothers Racing No. 96 for the 2021 Daytona 500.[108]

Schedule changes
Further information: History of NASCAR schedule realignments § Realignment 2021
  • The Busch Clash will be moved from the Sunday before the Daytona 500 to the Tuesday before (on February 9), in an effort to condense Speedweeks down to one week. The race will also be moved from the oval to the infield road course for the first time. The Daytona 500 will be held on Sunday, February 14.[124]
  • Nashville Superspeedway will host a Cup race, scheduled for Sunday, June 20 (Father's Day). It will be the first time the speedway will host a NASCAR Cup Series event, and the first time the track has hosted any NASCAR events since 2011. In order to put the track on the schedule, its owner, Dover Motorsports, moved one of their two Cup races at Dover (a track which they also own) to Nashville.[122]
  • On September 29, it was reported that Kentucky Speedway and Chicagoland Speedway would not be on the 2021 schedule.[125]
  • On September 30, NASCAR announced that Atlanta Motor Speedway would expand to two races, picking up the Quaker State 400 from Kentucky.[118]
  • On the same day, Road America was added back to the schedule for the first time since 1956 when a Grand National race took place.[126] The race is scheduled for July 4, replacing the race weekend at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, which has been moved to August and will see the track's road course configuration used.[127]
  • The Cup Series will also race on dirt for the first time since 1970 as the spring race at Bristol Motor Speedway will have the concrete half-mile covered in dirt.[128]
  • The All-Star Weekend, traditionally held at Charlotte Motor Speedway, moves to Texas Motor Speedway. The open weekend has its slot filled by a new race at Circuit of the Americas. As a consequence of gaining the All-Star race, Texas goes down to one points race.
