Tony Schumacher Makes a Comeback: Joins Rick Ware Racing for Limited Top Fuel Season

Rick Ware Racing has warmed up the engines with a significant announcement: the most successful NHRA Top Fuel driver, Tony Schumacher, has officially joined the racing team. Schumacher, known for his adrenaline-fueled performances and competitive edge, will be racing a limited season alongside the team’s stalwart racer, Clay Millican.

The specifics of Schumacher’s racing schedule are yet to be unveiled, but the exciting news is that fans can look forward to his full-time return to the racing circuit by 2026.

Schumacher expressed his excitement about the new adventure, stating, “This opportunity with Rick Ware Racing gets me back in a Top Fuel car where I can compete at a high level immediately.” He highlighted the team’s passion for the sport and their commitment, which aligns with his own, adding that he can’t wait to take the wheel. This limited schedule is a strategic move, allowing the team to build momentum towards 2026.

He also expressed a keen interest in working with his new teammate, Clay Millican. “He’s an incredibly talented racer with a ton of experience,” Schumacher said. The two will be sharing data, pushing each other to their limits, and working towards a common goal – making Rick Ware Racing an even more formidable force in the racing world.

Schumacher brings a wealth of experience and success to the team. With 88 career wins and eight championships under his belt, his addition to the team is a game-changer. He finished eighth in the championship standings in 2024 after winning two races. Prior to joining Rick Ware Racing, he was a part of JCM Racing, racing for owner Joe Maynard.

Rick Ware, the man behind the racing team, was enthusiastic about this new addition. “Tony is a huge addition to RWR,” Ware said. “Having a driver of his caliber strengthens our overall program.” Ware believes that Schumacher and Millican working together will amplify the team’s strength.

Rick Ware Racing, which made its NHRA debut in late 2022, is about to enter its third full season. During this relatively short period, the team has already celebrated four wins with Millican at the helm, including a victory at the prestigious U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis last year.

Ware credits much of the team’s success to Millican, the cornerstone of the RWR’s NHRA program. Ware emphasized that Millican’s talent, commitment, and love for the sport have been instrumental in putting the team on the map. “Every NHRA win in our team’s history has come with Clay, and that speaks volumes about his ability and commitment,” Ware added.

Now, with the addition of Schumacher, Rick Ware Racing has the two hardest-working Top Fuel drivers, ready to conquer the race tracks. This is a development that promises an exhilarating racing season ahead.
