Josh Berry
Joshua William Berry[1] (born October 22, 1990) is an American professional stock car racing driver.[5] Berry ditched a planned CARS schedule and instead focused on the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series, winning 24 races en route to a national championship.He returned to that car in the first race of the Xfinity Series Playoffs, at Kentucky Speedway and ended up finishing 13th.In 2017, Berry made his first Xfinity Series start of the season, attempting the Kansas race for newly-formed NextGen Motorsports, driving their No.[15] He recorded his first Xfinity win at Martinsville upon passing Ty Gibbs for the lead with 28 laps remaining; Berry was the fifth driver to win his maiden race in the series at Martinsville alongside Sam Ard (1982), Brett Bodine (1985), Brad Teague (1987) and Jeff Burton (1990).[17] In May, Berry made his NASCAR Cup Series debut in the Drydene 400 at Dover International Speedway, substituting for Justin Haley in the Spire Motorsports No.77 car after Haley was sidelined by COVID-19 protocols,[18] marking the second time that Berry was called on to fill in for a driver that had to miss a race because of COVID-19.[23] When Annett was re-injured in September, Berry once again took over as replacement at Bristol and Las Vegas, and he won the latter after passing teammate Justin Allgaier with under 20 laps to go.9 at the Las Vegas Cup race after Chase Elliott sustained a leg injury from snowboarding in Colorado.Still upside down, it impacted the inside wall head-on, sending it into a spin before it finally stopped on the apron of the track.[35] Thought of a very similar nature arose to a crash suffered by Ryan Preece in the previous year's running, Berry's car did not barrel roll, due likely to the updates to the track following the former's incident that saw the grass in the area removed and replaced with pavement.The flip happened in spite of an additional air deflector implemented in the intervening week after Corey LaJoie had a similar crash at Michigan the previous race,[36] intended to prevent cars from lifting off the ground.[3] Berry is a former classmate of IndyCar champion Josef Newgarden in the 7th and 8th grades as well as Taylor Swift in high school.* Season still in progress 1 Ineligible for series points (key) (Bold – Pole position awarded by qualifying time.
