Hendrick Motorsports
Between Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, Terry Labonte, Mark Martin, Darrell Waltrip, and plenty more, Hendrick Motorsports has rostered some of the biggest names in NASCAR’s history.
The professional racing organization was founded by Rick Hendrick in 1984 and originally known as All Star Racing, and it’s enjoyed more success than any other team with a record-setting number of victories in the Cup Series and 18 drivers’ championships across the sport’s leading circuits.
Hendrick Motorsports fields four full-time cars in the Cup Series: the No. 5 Chevrolet driven by Kyle Larson, the No. 9 Chevrolet driven by Chase Elliott, the No. 24 Chevrolet driven by William Byron, and the No. 48 Chevrolet driven by Alex Bowman. Bowman, Byron, and Kyle Larson also compete under the Hendrick Motorsports umbrella in the Xfinity Series.
Kyle Larson slipped from second to fifth in the standings with his last-place finish at Daytona. That cost him playoff points.
Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson are among the top drivers in NASCAR. Working for the same organization complicates their desire to win.
Alex Bowman won three regular-season races in 2021 but has struggled somewhat since. Now, there’s a new crew chief in his future.
The Kyle Larson-Chase Elliott spat could liven up the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs.
Kyle Larson scored a pair of victories at Watkins Glen, holding off one of the best drivers on road courses.
Chase Elliott’s victory at Watkins Glen in 2018 was memorable for reasons beyond the fact it was his first in the NASCAR Cup Series.
Motorsports fans are curious to see how Kimi Raikkonen fares at Watkins Glen in his NASCAR Cup Series debut.
Kyle Larson doesn’t have the same magic he did last summer.
Chase Elliott finished a lackluster 16th on the Indy Road Course after finishing first or second in the four previous races. He still took home a trophy courtesy of Denny Hamlin that will be a great conversation piece in the future.
Chase Elliott is beloved in Georgia and the Dawsonville Pool Room, which celebrates every win with a siren blast. On Sunday, the Room’s Twitter account made the loudest noise, firing a brutal shot at Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch.
