Hendrick Motorsports seeks its third consecutive win and pass Petty Enterprises for the most Cup victories all-time in Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600.
Hendrick nearly won last year’s 600 but Chase Elliott pitted from the lead before overtime, allowing Brad Keselowski to win the race for the first time.
“It’s an important thing to (car owner Rick) Hendrick and he’s made that very apparent over the last couple of years,” Elliott said of the team becoming the all-time Cup win leader. “I think when your leader cares about something that much, we all care about it equally as much, and we want to achieve that for him. I’m glad last week went the way it did. Anytime you can put a company in the same sentence as (Petty Enterprises) is a special thing and he should be very proud of that.
“There’s been a lot of people over the years that have had a lot larger contributions to the number than myself, but I look forward to what’s down the road. I hope we can knock the record down for him and hopefully keep it for a long time.”
Hendrick Motorsports has four of the top seven starters in the 600. Kyle Larson will start on the pole.
