Amidst Playoff Concerns, Chase Elliott Dismisses the Idea of New Hendrick Motorsports Narrative

Hendrick Motorsports driver, Chase Elliott is enduring a pretty difficult season so far. He missed the early part of the season due to injury. Then he suffered a race suspension. Now, his playoff contention is hanging in the balance, as he failed to win a single race so far.

Meanwhile, he recently dismissed the idea of a different approach from the HMS team, as the playoffs are getting closer.

A snowboarding accident forced Elliott out for the first few races of the season. Even though he returned, he has failed to win a single race so far. Moreover, a controversial crash with Denny Hamlin at the Coca-Cola 600 led to a one-race suspension for the HMS driver. However, he came back strong at Sonoma Raceway, as he finished in the top 5.

In a recent interview, Elliott said, “Sonoma was a nice run for us. We didn’t win or anything, but I think we just had a good, solid weekend… just thought we did a lot of little things good last weekend, and I felt like I kind of just plugged right back into a good stride and a good cadence.”

Amidst his playoff concerns, there was a lot of talk regarding the change of approach from HMS. Speaking about it, Elliott said, “Short answer – no, I don’t think we need to push too hard or do anything crazy. I think our approach needs to be the same and just make sure we’re executing the things that we talk about and the things we’re zoned in on.”
