Yeley normally pilots the No. 15 RWR Ford, starting 15 of the first 32 races this year. Joey Hand will be in the No. 15 car this weekend.
"This weekend I am making the tough decision to step aside and support my team from outside the car," said Ware in a statement published on social media."Given the extensive footwork required for a road course event, I don't feel I'll be able to give 100% effort to my team, my sponsors or Ford. "I appreciate everyone's continued support and well wishes & I can't wait to be back in action in Vegas. My recovery process is going great & I'm feeling stronger each day. Big thanks to J.J. Yeley for filling in for me for this event. I'll be pulling for you."
