Hendrick Motorsports Rewind
Teamwork is a crucial value for Hendrick Motorsports team owner Rick Hendrick, and it will be essential in the upcoming NASCAR Cup Series race at Talladega Superspeedway.
In 2011, the concept of teamwork in superspeedway racing was different, with "tandem" racing dominating the tracks. Two cars from the same team or manufacturer would pair up, using bump drafting to gain momentum over other duos.
Teamwork is one of the most important values for Hendrick Motorsports team owner Rick Hendrick.
A notable example of this tactic was the pairing of Jimmie Johnson and Dale Earnhardt Jr. at Talladega in 2011, which made NASCAR history.
- Kyle Larson, William Byron, and Chase Elliott will try to claim their Championship 4 spot in Phoenix.
- The Talladega race will feature side-by-side pack racing with long, multi-car draft lines.
