.JimmieJohnson will be competing part-time in his 2023 NASCAR return, while taking up an ownership role at PettyGMS. But that's not all. He's looking at running IndyCar, IMSA, off-road, and maybe even the LeMans24:
Since stepping away from NASCAR, the seven-time Cup Series champion has raced full-time in IndyCar, earned podiums in some of the most prestigious endurance races on the IMSA schedule, and even took part in the Goodwood Festival of Speed. One could hardly call it a retirement.
"As this conversation started, it's one that I really had to pay close attention to, an offer, an opportunity that's just a life-changing opportunity for me and one that I had to take. So I'm very excited about this." Looking forward, he still wants to run a handful of IndyCar and sports car races ... and that's not all.
So why did Johnson want to take yet another new journey, this time into NASCAR team ownership? His decision to rejoin the sport in this way really came down to a 'gut feeling.'
