According to AR1.com sources, Roush Fenway Racing will shut down the #6 Car for 2019.

Even with the existing Advocare sponsorship, they have sold less than half the available slots for next season.

When sponsors see those low TV ratings on cable TV channels like NBCSN they head for the exits in droves.

NASCAR and IndyCar are lucky the Trump economy is booming right now and sponsors are flush with cash to spend on advertising. But all good economies eventually suffer a slowdown and when that happens, combined with low TV ratings (small exposure for sponsors), the sponsor exit will hasten.
