Justin Alexander Joins Erik Jones As Crew Chief for 2026

Alexander replaces Ben Beshore, who was named LMC's Director of Race Engineering. "His experience, communication style, and leadership align perfectly with the direction we’re headed," owner Jimmie Johnson said about Alexander, who has five Cup wins, including the 2018 Daytona 500, all while paired with Austin Dillon. Jones, who last won in 2022, finished 24th in the standings in 2025.
