Delightful news came out this week as Chase Elliott confirmed his return to the Cup Series. It has been difficult for the 27-year-old driver since he suffered a serious leg injury. However, now that he’s back, it is time for him to focus and give his best efforts on the track.
Having missed six races so far this season, Chase currently stands at the 33rd position on the points table. Currently, he has 49 points to his name and is 134 points behind the last playoff contender.
When recently Elliott attended the Pat McAfee show, he spoke about his chances at Martinsville. It was then that he said, “Points don’t matter now. I’m so far out, so the win is the only option for us.” To this, McAfee said, “You get first this weekend, we’ll give $100,000 to a charity of your choice.”
“I think it’s going to be tough. What challenges are going to be presented this weekend, I don’t 100% until I get there and kind of get going through it. But anytime you miss a period and your competitors are sharpening their skills and you’re not—I do think you’ve missed out, for sure.”
