James Davison

The 35-year-old Australian raced most of last season's schedule with 20 starts to his credit by the time the Cup Series reached Phoenix in November. Most of last season Davison raced in the No. 15 Chevrolet Rick Ware Racing entry. While he shared this ride with other drivers, it was pretty clear they were getting their best results when Davison was behind the wheel. He would not crack the Top 20 at any point, but he would come close on a couple occasions. Davison labored to a hefty 31.3 average finish, but would be the best of the driver lineup in the No. 15 car. He should return for another similar schedule with this team in 2022. Davison will likely share the car with Joey Gase, Garrett Smithley and maybe some others, but should get the bulk of the 36-race schedule of starts. The seasoned driver has improved incrementally each season since his Cup Series debut in 2020, and he should continue with small gains in the upcoming campaign.

Ran 15 events last season in Rick Ware Racing's No. 51 and No. 53 teams. Davison collected only four Top-30 finishes in those efforts, and presents little, if any, fantasy racing worth.
