Cody Ware has decided not to compete in this weekend’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Charlotte Motor Speedway Roval.
After a severe accident on September 25 at Texas Motor Speedway, Ware, 26, sustained an ankle problem.
He competed the following weekend at Talladega Superspeedway with a boot on his right foot despite having an ankle injury and ruptured ligaments, placing 32nd.
However, he won’t compete in the Cup race at the Charlotte Roval because of the additional footwork required on road courses. J.J. Yeley will take his position in the No. 51 Rick Ware Racing Ford Mustang.
Yeley has started 15 of the first 31 races of the season driving the No. 15 RWR Ford. This weekend, Joey Hand will drive the No. 15 car.
“This weekend I am making the tough decision to step aside and support my team from outside the car,” said Ware in a statement published on social media. “Given the extensive footwork required for a road course event, I don’t feel I’ll be able to give 100% effort to my team, my sponsors or Ford.
“I appreciate everyone’s continued support and well wishes & I can’t wait to be back in action in Vegas. My recovery process is going great & I’m feeling stronger each day. Big thanks to J.J. Yeley for filling in for me for this event. I’ll be pulling for you.”
