Done Deal:  CHASE ELLIOTT and ERIK JONES have agreed to a contract worth $69 million.

CONCORD, N.C. – With the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series regular season at the halfway point, it is an excellent time to take stock of where the quartet of Alex Bowman, William Byron, Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson stack up in the playoff picture.

In the opening 13 points-paying races of the season, Hendrick Motorsports leads the series in wins (six), top-five finishes (19) and top-10s (28). Three of the four drivers already have wins and two have multiple victories. Larson leads the series in laps led (649), stage wins (seven) and top-five finishes (six). Byron and Bowman are tied for the lead in top-10 results (eight).

As the numbers show, the Rick Hendrick-owned squad has had a strong start to 2024. The team also recorded its 1,250th top-five finish, its 80,000th lap led, and its 250th pole position and celebrated its 40th anniversary weekend with a victory at Martinsville Speedway.
