In the exhilarating realm of NASCAR, the unbreakable bond between crew chiefs and their drivers serves as the foundation for a winning racing team.

Christopher Bell explains his relationship with the legendary crew chief:

During a conversation over a podcast, Bell revealed, “Yeah, that’s actually an interesting topic point because each crew chief driver relationship has... A unique way of communicating… Adam is very much just. Let him work on his deal and stay out of his hair…”

“We’ll debrief on Mondays and then if there’s stuff that comes up, he’ll reach out to me or I’ll reach out to him but basically.”

Bell’s explanation might have the answer to Kyle Busch’s crew chief split

Bell had explained that his crew chief, Adam Stevens, had his own way of doing things. He apparently did not like it if anyone were to tell him what to do. Moreover, this could serve as the primary explanation as to why Stevens decided to part ways with Busch at the end of the 2020 season.

In a past interview, Busch revealed that he had requested Stevens to implement certain “personnel” adjustments within their No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota team. However, Stevens found himself at odds with Busch’s proposals. Apparently, Stevens responded by suggesting they both pursue different paths and evaluate the outcomes.

Subsequently, Busch experienced a jolt of surprise when Stevens called it quits on their six-year, two-championship-winning alliance. Left with no choice, Busch sought a new partner for the 2021 season. Meanwhile, Stevens transitioned seamlessly to his new role as crew chief for Christopher Bell.
