Dec. 10, 2025, 9:30 a.m. ET
Anthony Alfredo has landed a new ride for 2026. Last week, Viking Motorsports announced that Alfredo will drive the No. 96 car full-time for the organization during the 2026 NASCAR O’Reilly Series season. The former Young’s Motorsports driver’s addition creates a two-driver lineup for Viking Motorsports with Parker Retzlaff in the No. 99 car.
In 2025, Alfredo finished the season with one top-10 finish, a 24.1 average finishing position, and a 24th-place finish in the point standings. Alfredo improved as the 2025 NASCAR season progressed, but he decided to pursue an opportunity outside Young’s Motorsports for next year.
Viking Motorsports has an excellent two-driver lineup with Retzlaff and Alfredo, two competitors who have excelled in mid-field equipment throughout their O’Reilly Series careers. Now, both drivers have a fantastic opportunity with Viking Motorsports, and the organization hopes to improve even more in 2026.
