Car No. 27 history[]

On October 9, 2021, NASCAR Whelen Euro Series champion Loris Hezemans, and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Owner-Driver Josh Reaume announced the formation of Team Hezeberg, and will compete in a partial schedule for the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series, and are hoping to go full-time in 2023. The team is owned by Loris' father, former racer Toine Hezemans, Dutch entrepreneur Ernst Berg, and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Owner-Driver Josh Reaume. Hezeberg Systems, the family company owned by Toine Hezemans, will be the primary sponsor for the team. Jacques Villeneuve, 1995 IndyCar champion and 1997 Formula 1 World Champion who made his last NASCAR start in 2013, will be returning to the NASCAR Cup Series in 2022 to drive for select races next season. The team will have prepared cars from Reaume Brothers Racing, owned by Josh Reaume.[2][3][4] Villeneuve will take part in the Daytona Next Gen test for Team Hezeberg on the 11th January, 2022.[5] On January 12, 2022, it was announced that Villeneuve will be attempting to make the 2022 Daytona 500 for the team, which would be his first NASCAR start since 2013.[6] Villeneuve would officially make the Daytona 500 after qualifying on speed.[7] On 17th February 2022, Jacques Villeneuve miss the warm lap of the second of the Vacations Duel day race #2. The problem was due to the gas cable that broke. The team had sufficient time to fix the problem and Villeneuve has been able to join the grid for the start of the race. Unfortunately, Villeneuve was unable to keep the pace and abandoned the race with 20 laps remaining.
