Alex Bowman Expresses Excitement and Shows His Livery for 2021 Chili Bowl Nationals Dirt Race

Alex Bowman has been competing in the Chili Bowl Nationals since 2019, but has never gone to Victory Lane. However, he plans to change that when the 2021 edition of the race rolls by. In light of that, he recently unveiled the car that he will pilot for the dirt race.

Of course, Bowman is aware that a trip to Victory Lane will not be easy. He will have to contend with a variety of seasoned dirt track racers, as well as NASCAR contemporaries. To be precise, he has to watch out for the likes of Kyle Larson, Chase Elliott, Christopher Bell, Justin Allgaier, Chase Briscoe, Kasey Kahne, and many more.

Admittedly, Larson and Bell will be the favorites, having won the previous editions. However, Bowman knows that nothing is set in stone until the checkered flag drops. On the other end of the scale, Larson has had plenty of practice on dirt tracks in the 2020 season.

Can Alex Bowman get the monkey off his back?

In theory, Bowman is definitely capable of winning the race. However, putting it into practice could be a completely different story. All of his rivals are seasoned racers, especially on the dirt surface, so his work is cut out for him.

On the bright side, the Chili Bowl Nationals race will be an excellent bit of practice. Especially since the NASCAR drivers will race on the Bristol dirt surface in 2021; owing to this, the NASCAR drivers will likely use the Chili Bowl race to get used to the surface.

Even if Alex Bowman fails to win the race in Tulsa, it will not be any skin off his nose. This is because he knows that the 2021 Cup Series season is the real target. In light of this, he and the other drivers will prepare as much as possible for the coming season from February onwards.
