And let us not forget the pi'ce de r'sistance: Ram will entitle the "PBR RAM Challenger Series." Yes, comrades, even the bull riding will bear the Ram name, because nothing says "authentic Western tradition" quite like corporate branding…...

However, they might face some trouble in the upcoming season as Mercedes has just dropped an interesting statement. With the changing regulations in the 2026 F1 season, a competitive and reliable engine is what the teams will be looking forward to.

But now, with a major Chevy organization unveiling its 2026 crew chief lineup, one thing is very clear: Gabehart's name isn't on their list. Well, the big surprise? Chris Gabehart's name is nowhere in sight. For weeks, insiders hinted that Gabehart might land at Spire in a high-level director role.
