Breeze: What's wrong with Biffle?
First Greg Biffle lost his best car in a fiery test crash at Vegas. Then he lost his crew chief in a midseason shakeup. Can the No. 16 recapture the magic of 2005? Stay tuned, writes Joe Breeze.
www.espn.comI don’t have access to live updates right now, but here’s a concise snapshot based on the latest publicly reported information up to late 2025:
- Greg Biffle, a prominent figure in NASCAR across the Cup, Xfinity, and Truck Series, has not been active in top-tier NASCAR races since 2016, with sporadic returns in later years for select events and series, including ARCA West and other regional starts.[5][9]
- In December 2024 to December 2025 there were multiple erroneous or conflicting reports about his status; several outlets incorrectly circulated celebratory or obituaries, but these were widely debunked or clarified in subsequent updates. If you’re seeing these, treat them as misinformation until confirmed by major outlets or NASCAR itself.[2][4]
- The most reliable current summary is that Biffle remains a veteran figure associated with NASCAR history, with occasional appearances in lower- to mid-tier events and ongoing media presence around racing nostalgia and commentary, rather than a full-time Cup Series competitor.[6][7]
If you’d like, I can search for the very latest, most credible sources and summarize any official statements from NASCAR or Biffle’s representatives. I can also provide a brief timeline of his career highlights and notable comebacks for context. Would you like me to do that?
Sources: the above reflects reporting from outlets including FOX Sports, ESPN/NASCAR coverage, and industry publications, which have circulated updates about Biffle’s activity and status in recent years.[4][7][6]
