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.
William Byron has posted six straight top-10 finishes, but the road courses and short tracks ahead will determine how successful his season is.
Corey LaJoie saw first-hand last week just how big the gulf is between the haves and the have-nots in the NASCAR Cup Series.
Corey LaJoie will be in the best car of his NASCAR Cup Series career at World Wide Technology Raceway and can throw quite a wrinkle into the playoff picture.
Chase Elliott recently received the type of suspension Jeff Gordon should have gotten back in 2012 and didn’t.
The window between the end of the Indianapolis 500 and start of the Coca-Cola 600 is very tight, which will concern Kyle Larson next spring.
Alex Bowman has missed a month of NASCAR action but will make his return in the Coca-Cola 600.
Losing his crew chief to Hendrick Motorsports was a big blow for Michael McDowell.
Kyle Larson left the field in shambles by dominating the All-Star Race following a last-place restart in the early minutes.
Justin Marks is reining in Ross Chastain after a Monday the Trackhouse Racing owner said was filled with ‘difficult conversations.’
Both Rick Hendrick and crew chief Cliff Daniels dropped mentions of Chevrolet into their comments Sunday as displeasure with Ross Chastain intensified.
