Elliott Sadler, a former Sprint Cup driver who went back to the Nationwide Series in 2011 following the closure of Richard Petty's #19 team, will be driving for Roush Fenway Racing in what will soon be known as the Xfinity Series in 2015. Sadler will drive a #1 Ford Mustang, presumably replacing Trevor Bayne, who will take the #6 car with him to Cup for his first full-time gig in the series come February.
Sadler has spent the last two seasons with Joe Gibbs Racing and won at Talladega in May. Before that, he drove for Richard Childress for two years and won four races in 2012. He also drove in a few Cup races with RCR in the #33 car before most of the #33 team was sold to Joe Falk. Sadler's last appearance in cup was in the last four races of 2013 with Michael Waltrip Racing, subbing for Brian Vickers.
