IT’S FAIR TO SAY THAT THE CURRENT SEASON, EVEN THOUGH ONLY TWO RACES OLD, HASN’T BEEN TURNING WELL FOR HENDRICK DRIVER CHASE ELLIOTT. A TENTH PLACE FINISH AT DAYTONA AND THEN HAVING DEALT A BLOW BY HIS OWN TEAMMATE IN FONTANA. AND NOW, THE 2020 CUP CHAMPION HAS AGAIN BEEN DEALT WITH ANOTHER BLOW, THIS TIME BY NASCAR.
Chase Elliott's No. 9 Camero failed the pre-qualifying inspection twice, ahead of the Las Vegas race.
As a result, they had to eject Matt Brandt, the car chief from Elliott's team. On top of that, the No.9 will also lose pit stall selection, irrespective of where they finish
Fellow drivers- Kevin Harvick, Todd Gilliland, Josh Bilicki, and Harrison Burton have all been dealt with the same blow.
