John Force Racing is ramping up for a major 2026 campaign, officially adding Alexis DeJoria to its lineup under a new multiyear agreement. The move expands JFR to four full-time teams and brings one of the sport’s most respected and accomplished Funny Car drivers into the Force organization.
DeJoria arrives with an impressive track record: the first woman in Funny Car history to run a three-second pass, six NHRA national event wins, 16 final-round appearances, and six Top 10 finishes. Her experience, professionalism, and ability to perform under pressure make her a significant addition to the JFR program.
“Alexis is a fierce competitor who has earned her place in the Funny Car ranks, and it’s great to have her become the newest member of our team,” said John Force, CEO and 16-time NHRA Funny Car Champion. “I admire what Alexis and her father, John Paul, have built together over the years.”
A big 2026 is on the horizon for JFR.
