Josh Berry will be at the center of attention this weekend as he leads Wood Brothers Racing with a striking new design for the No. 21 Ford Mustang Dark Horse, featuring Würth as the primary sponsor. The team is set to debut this partnership during the Würth 400 at Texas Motor Speedway, where the NASCAR Cup Series will bring together intense competition and high stakes. Berry’s chance to showcase both speed and style arrives at the 1.5-mile Texas oval, marking an important chapter for both the team and their sponsors.
This weekend’s event highlights the first time Würth takes the primary role on the iconic No. 21 car, whose eye-catching red, white, and black colors symbolize a fresh chapter for Wood Brothers Racing. Josh Berry’s excitement is clear, as he stated, “It’s always exciting to welcome a new partner to the team, and having Würth join us for the Würth 400 makes it even more special. The car looks awesome – it’s a clean, aggressive design that really stands out. I’m looking forward to getting to Texas and hopefully putting together a strong run.”
For Berry, Sunday’s race marks only his second NASCAR Cup Series start at Texas Motor Speedway. However, his past success in the NASCAR Xfinity Series at the venue—earning two top-10 finishes out of four appearances, with a best finish of sixth in 2022—signals his potential for a breakthrough. Riding high after capturing his first Cup Series victory earlier this year at Las Vegas, Berry aims to keep the momentum alive for Wood Brothers Racing in Texas.
Navigating Texas Motor Speedway presents unique challenges even for experienced drivers. As Berry explained, “It’s definitely a unique layout. Each end of the track is so drastically different that part of the problem is it’s very hard to get your car really balanced on both ends… The sketchiness of it is going through three nearly wide-open. That makes it a handful.”
As anticipation builds for the Würth 400, scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET, eyes are trained on Josh Berry and Wood Brothers Racing to see if their bold new look will also translate into impressive results. The event’s outcome may mark a significant moment in Berry’s Cup Series journey and could shape future partnerships and strategies for the team.
