Description british english flag icon
Beard Motorsports is an American professional stock car racing team that competes part-time in the NASCAR Cup Series with the No. 62 Chevrolet ZL1 for Anthony Alfredo. The team was created in 1982 by Mark Beard for competition in the NASCAR Busch Series. Beard Motorsports attempted two races in the Cup Series in 2014, with driver Clay Rogers, making none. After going dormant in 2015 and 2016, the team returned part-time in 2017 with Brendan Gaughan.

Cup Series
Car No. 62 history

Brendan Gaughan in the No. 62 at Talladega Superspeedway in 2019
The team came back for the 2018 slate of restrictor-plate races in the No. 62 with Brendan Gaughan behind the wheel, and did the same as well in 2019, using cars from Richard Childress Racing, engines from ECR Engines, and technical support from the Childress crew.

2020 marked Gaughan's final season as a driver. He made the field at the 2020 Daytona 500 by posting the second fastest qualifying speed of all the non-charter teams (188.945 mph; 33rd overall). Gaughan's tenure with the team and career ended in the YellaWood 500 at Talladega, where he finished 35th after being collected in a Stage 2 wreck.

On January 14, 2021, Beard announced Noah Gragson would attempt to make his Cup debut in the Daytona 500. On January 31, just fourteen days before the 500, team owner Mark Beard died at age 72.

On September 7, 2021, Beard Motorsports announced they will return in the 2022 season, entering the No. 62 in all four superspeedway races with Gragson competing in the 2022 Daytona 500. Gragson finally made his debut, but he failed to finish being involved in a crash. He achieved sponsorship from Wendy's for Talladega and achieved his first ever top-twenty finish in a Cup Series race. Later on, at the August Daytona Race, Gragson finished fifth in the race, giving the team their first top 5 in a NASCAR Cup Series race.

Beard Motorsports attempted to make the 2023 Daytona 500 with Austin Hill, but Hill failed to make the field after a late crash resulted in an eighteenth place finish in Duel 2 of the 2023 Bluegreen Vacations Duels.

For the 2024 season, Beard Motorsports signed Anthony Alfredo to drive the No. 62. Alfredo finished 27th at the 2024 Daytona 500 and scored a career-best sixth place finish at Talladega. At the 2024 Coke Zero Sugar 400, Parker Retzlaff scored an impressive seventh place finish after pushing Harrison Burton to the lead under an overtime finish.
