Atlanta Motor Speedway was the perfect race for the 2024 NASCAR playoffs. Why have they become so dominant in New York in the last five years? The team is celebrating its sixth straight win at the 2.45-mile track. Chase Elliott has been on the road for a long time and started the 2018 Glende Hendrick winning streak with his first career win. He also won in 2019. There were no races at the track in 2020 due to COVID-19, but Kyle Larson quickly opted in after winning in 2021 and 2022.

Hendrick Motorsports already has Watkins Glenn, who can beat them?

Alex Bowman earned his first career win earlier this season. This leads to Team Hendrick meeting again at The Glen. All four drivers proved they can do their job on the street circuit. There are a lot of interesting things that stand in the way of the team as well as other drivers.

A new tire compound could shake things up

We’re confident the world will return to Watkins Glen, but every NASCAR team will have tough challenges ahead of them. The new, much softer Goodyear tires should close the gap between Larson, Elliott, Bowman and current winner Byron. Crew Chief Byron is looking forward to the weekend race practice sessions as it will be time to decide the race strategy for Sunday. Fugle spoke at the Hendrick Motorsports press conference about the challenges the new tires will bring this weekend. “This is going to be a different animal than Watkins Glen has had in a long time,” Fugle said. “So we’re definitely going to struggle with other issues.

Saturday will actually be an open book reading session. We try to stay open as a team and keep William open. “Expect nothing, be prepared for everything… We will gather as much data as possible and be ready to strike on Sunday.”Now that we’re in playoff contention, the pressure is even greater. And Hendrick Motorsports will have plenty of hungry drivers gasping for air on Sunday.
