There is arguably no other team in NASCAR today that has a more promising lineup than Hendrick Motorsports. While Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson are the unquestionable superstars of the outfit, especially with their 2020 and 2021 Cup championships, Alex Bowman and William Byron are also key elements of the bigger equation.

Not to mention the latter two are incredible drivers in their own right whose talents are slightly overshadowed by the two bigger stars.

However, there’s one thing in which Alex Bowman considers himself better than all three of his teammates – his good looks. The No.48 driver recently described his teammates in an interview.

And to say he was modest about himself would be a paradoxically ironic thing.

“Kyle is super blunt. Obviously, he likes to race a lot of other things, and he’s just super fast and can always seem to make the race car work. Chase is kind of quiet and reserved,” Bowman says “and William (Byron) is like my little brother that I love to pick on. From my side, at least, I think he wants to burn my house down, but I thoroughly enjoy picking on him sometimes.”

“And then I’m obviously the best looking one.”

Alex Bowman describes what makes Hendrick Motorsports what it is

Alex Bowman had a simple, but apt answer about what makes Rick Hendrick’s team Hendrick Motorsports. “What makes Hendrick Motorsports what it is, is the depth of knowledge. So obviously, no one person or part or piece makes that. It’s the depth of knowledge and the depths of people,” he said.

“So I think that’s something that Mr. H has built throughout the course of the years and having that amount of super knowledgeable people and different viewpoints on things and all that has really allowed us to build the best race cars we possibly can and to assemble the best race teams we can.”

In the 2021 season, Alex Bowman, despite having a good season, couldn’t contend for the championship. The good season simply wasn’t good enough.

However, this year, ‘the good looking’ Hendrick driver will look to announce himself as a championship contender in a team full of championship contenders.
