Tommy Baldwin Jr. is stepping down as competition director at Rick Ware Racing, citing misaligned expectations with owner Rick Ware — but with a warm note: they’re parting amicably to preserve their friendship. After joining the No. 51 Cup team in April 2023, Baldwin is now taking a well-earned break to focus on his racing sons, Jack and Luke, both rising stars in NASCAR’s developmental ranks. With over 600 Cup races as a crew chief and a storied 30-year NASCAR career, his exit leaves a void at Rick Ware Racing, currently struggling at the bottom of the owner standings. Baldwin’s next move? Family time and reflection — before charting his next chapter in motorsports.
