Following the NASCAR Cup race at Las Vegas, Ryan Blaney spoke about how things panned out for him. Blaney managed to finish 5th in the race, the second Penske car on the track. In conversation with FOX Sports, he acknowledged that the Top-10 was practically filled by Hendrick Motorsports, Joe Gibbs and Team Penske cars. At this race, Joe Gibbs Racing managed to get all four cars in the Top-10. Hendrick Motorsports sneaked in two cars, with one of them winning. Finally, Team Penske got all three Penske cars in it as well, with Brad Keselowski as the lead Penske in 2nd. Ryan Blaney said [https://twitter.com/bobpockrass/status/1368736390192726027], “Obviously those guys are really fast right now. Hendrick showed it last week with the #24, obviously the #5 was really fast today. “But I thought we all made good gains, I didn’t think we were that great at Homestead last week. I thought our company struggled a little bit and we put in a lot of work this week to come here and be better.” WHAT ELSE DID RYAN BLANEY SAY? The driver acknowledged that the Team Penske outfit was performing well. However, he knows that they still have a long way to go to reach a satisfactory level. Ryan Blaney confessed that the #5 Hendrick Motorsports car was pretty dominant, but he and his team will certainly strive to be better.

(Photo by Sean Gardner/Getty Images) At the end of the day, it is good to be close to the leaders. Luckily for Blaney, Keselowski and Joey Logano, the season has only just begun. With only four races done and dusted, there is plenty of time to buck up and floor the pedal. Given that these four races have produced four different winners, a Team Penske race win should not be outside the realm of reality.

dominant, but Ryan Blaney is confident of Team Penske's progress.

Hendrick Motorsports

What is Hendrick Motorsports? There are a few motorsports teams in the world that can boast of the kind of achievements that Hendrick Motorsports has had. Rick Hendrick&#8216;s organization is the winningest team in the history of the NASCAR Cup Series and after four decades of existence, they are only getting better. It&#8217;s not just the Cup Series that the team has been successful in as they have Xfinity and Truck Series championships in their cabinet as well. When it comes to dominance in stock car racing, no team has ever matched up to the brilliance of HMS no matter what obstacles have come their way.

Mandatory Credit: Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports The history of Hendrick Motorsports Back when NASCAR&#8217;s popularity was on a meteoric rise, a car dealership owner by the name of Rick Hendrick founded a race team called All-Star Racing along with Harry Hyde. The following year, its name was changed to what fans are familiar with today, Hendrick Motorsports. At the time, things were not easy for Hendrick and there were genuine fears about the team being forced to shut down operations in its very first season. However, when Geoff Bodine defied the odds to win their first race in 1984 at Martinsville, a lot of people, including Hendrick himself, rested easy.

(Photo by Rainier Ehrhardt/Getty Images) The team&#8217;s expansion as a prominent Cup Series competitor came to fruition in 1986 when they upgraded from one car to two and then to three in 1987. In 2002, Rick Hendrick decided to have four cars in NASCAR&#8217;s biggest competition and that has been their lineup ever since. Several great racers have had the honor of driving for the legendary team but their first-ever Cup Series champion was Jeff Gordon in 1995. Today, the 52-year-old is the vice-chairman and co-owner of the team and he also has an equity stake in the #24 team which currently has William Byron as its driver. Why is the team named Hendrick Motorsports? Well, it is quite obvious why Hendrick Motorsports is called Hendrick Motorsports. The team is the brainchild of Rick Hendrick so it seems only fair that it is named after the great motorsports veteran. However, when the organization was founded in 1984, it was called All-Star Racing. The rebranding of the team took place just one year into its existence but since then, it has remained the same. Today, the name Hendrick Motorsports is synonymous with success in NASCAR. Hendrick Motorsports net worth 2024 Being the most successful Cup Series team sure has its perks and one of them is its sheer value. Today, Hendrick Motorsports is among the richest motorsports organizations the world has ever known. The team&#8217;s net worth as of 2024 has not been made available as of yet but a Forbes report in 2020 pegged it to be at a whopping $315 million. That number has certainly increased as the team has won two Cup Series titles since then. Their success has also earned an astronomical amount of personal wealth for Rick Hendrick, whose net worth is estimated to be a whopping $1.1 billion.

Mandatory Credit: Mike Dinovo-USA TODAY Sports But it&#8217;s not just the race wins and championships that determine a team&#8217;s net worth. A lot of that has to do with the sponsorship deals and endorsements that the team has. Hendrick Motorsports has the backing of some of the biggest companies in the world like Chevrolet, Ally, Coca-Cola, and Hooters just to name a few. Reports in 2023 also suggested that the team was investing in a $23 million facility in Concord which would only add to the team&#8217;s earnings in the future. Hendrick Motorsports racing drivers When the team was first started in 1984, Hendrick Motorsports only had one car in the Cup Series. However, as time went by and they racked up the wins and championships, Rick Hendrick began his expansion. In 2002, the team had four cars in the competition and that is the case today as well. The four teams that race full-time for the team in NASCAR&#8217;s biggest competitions are the #5, #9, #24 and #48. Each of these numbers has a lot of history behind them. The #5, currently being driven by Kyle Larson, was the first car that Rick Hendrick fielded when the team was founded in 1984. Its first driver was Geoff Bodine who won a race in that very season at Martinsville to get the ball rolling for the future. The car&#8217;s first Cup Series championship came in 1996 when Terry Labonte won it all and its second came in 2021 with Larson. Several other greats have also driven for the number, such as people like Ricky Rudd, Kyle Busch, Kasey Kahne, and Mark Martin.

Mandatory Credit: David Yeazell-USA TODAY Sports The #9 has only ever seen one full-time driver but that man is well on his way to becoming one of the greatest the sport has ever seen. Chase Elliott has been one of the brightest stars in stock car racing for a while now and he won his only Cup Series championship so far with the #9 in 2020. He used to drive the #24 but was renumbered after the 2017 season to honor his father, Bill Elliott, who drove a #9 for most of his career.

(Photo by Sean Gardner/Getty Images) The #24 is what brought success to Hendrick Motorsports in terms of championships for the first time. Jeff Gordon was the driver of the car when the team won their first-ever Cup Series championship and the NASCAR legend went on to win three more titles with the same number. The #24 holds a legendary status in all of NASCAR and today, it is being driven by one of the brightest and most talented racers in stock car racing, William Byron.

Mandatory Credit: Jasen Vinlove-USA TODAY Sports And then there&#8217;s the #48. It is the most successful number in modern-day NASCAR as the legendary Jimmie Johnson won a whopping seven Cup Series titles in that car. The #48 is the car that holds the record for winning the most number of successful Cup Series championships with five with Johnson. Anyone who gets the opportunity to sit behind the wheel of the #48 has massive shoes to fill and as of 2024, that person is Alex Bowman. The likes of Noah Gragson and Josh Berry have also raced in it on a few occasions. And then there was the #88 which was also driven by Bowman but made famous by Dale Earnhardt Jr. He might not have won a Cup Series championship with the car but he certainly won a lot of fans in it during his time at the team, and several race victories.

Mandatory Credit: Jim Dedmon-USA TODAY Sports Hendrick Motorsports partnerships and endorsements Rick Hendrick&#8217;s organization has some of the biggest partnership deals in NASCAR today with some of the biggest companies in the world. One of the racing team&#8217;s oldest relationships is with Chevrolet, which has been its engine manufacturer since the beginning. As per an article on the Hendrick Motorsports website, Mr H had said the team was lucky to have been with Chevrolet since the beginning. Apart from the American car manufacturer, HMS has partnership deals with companies like NAPA, Ally, Valvoline, Axalta, Hooters, Coca-Cola, and Liberty University. The interesting one among all the aforementioned organizations is Liberty University which sponsors the #24 car of William Byron. It has been with the Cup Series star since 2014 and the current contract runs until the end of the 2026 season. The partnership has helped the university as HMS backs the School of Engineeringâ€™s Formula SAE effort which is one for the future as it deals with EV technology. Hendrick Automotive went one step further to help develop a degree specialization in automotive dealership management. Hendrick Motorsports investments A team the size and success of Hendrick Motorsports will make investments where it sees fit but one such attempt had not sat well with fans. In 2023, reports emerged that the Charlotte Motor Speedway had sold a whopping 82 acres of land to an entity related to Hendrick Motorsports for $22.6 million. It sent fears of the iconic race track suffering the same fate as Fontana. As per the Charlotte Business Journal, the land will be used for a couple of advanced manufacturing projects under Mr H. After the sale, the city of Concord gave the green light to Rick Hendrick for the project to be undertaken, which will reportedly have an investment of $23.7 million. It will be interesting to see if the project affects the Charlotte Motor Speedway in any way and if so, how. Hendrick Motorsports major achievements and awards It is no wonder that Hendrick Motorsports is one of the biggest teams in stock car racing today as it is the most successful. The team has won more races and more championships than any other team in the history of the Cup Series. They have 14 Cup Series championship wins and more than 300 race wins so far in their illustrious history. Rick Hendrick&#8217;s organization became the team with the most race wins in the Cup when they overtook Petty Enterprises in 2021 and won their 269th race. The team&#8217;s 14 Cup Series successes have come with drivers like Jeff Gordon (4), Jimmie Johnson (7, including 5 in a row), Terry Labonte (1), Chase Elliott (1) and Kyle Larson (1). But the Cup is not where the success story stops. Mr H&#8217;s team has won the NASCAR Xfinity Series once (2003) and the Truck Series on 3 occasions (1997,1999, 2001). For his achievements in the competition, team owner Rick Hendrick was bestowed with the honor of being inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2017.Â  But that did not stop his ambitions from expanding onto the global stage. HOMESTEAD, FL &#8211; NOVEMBER 20: Jimmie Johnson, driver of the #48 Lowe&#8217;s Chevrolet, poses for a portrait after winning the 2016 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Championship at Homestead-Miami Speedway in Homestead, Florida. (Photo by Jonathan Ferrey/NASCAR via Getty Images) Hendrick Motorsports and Garage 56 One of the first steps to that expansion was the team&#8217;s shocking run in the 2023 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The project was called Garage 56 and Hendrick Motorsports brought a roaring modified stock car to the south of France to run the iconic race. It was truly a sight to see on the track as the huge #24 car completed the laps. The team had three of the best drivers in the world &#8211; Jimmie Johnson, Jenson Button, and Mike Rockenfeller. The goal was to finish the race which the team did in P39 out of 62. Certainly an impressive result for a debutante team. Hendrick Motorsports&#8217; fateful plane crash The team may enjoy its time as one of the biggest race teams in the world right now but the road has been a rocky one for Rick Hendrick and others involved. The legendary team owner suffered an unthinkable personal tragedy in 2004 when a plane crash took the lives of several people he considered near and dear, including his son Ricky Hendrick. The others who met their demise were John Hendrick and his daughters, Kimberly and Jennifer Hendrick, Jeff Turner, and Randy Dortom. They were all employees at HMS. The accident was attributed in part to pilot error, both of whom also lost their lives in the crash. Other passengers included Joe Jackson and Scott Lathram.

Ryan Blaney

Who is Ryan Blaney? Ryan Blaney is a driver in the NASCAR Cup Series who pulled off an unforeseen feat when he won the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series. After making it to six consecutive playoffs, the Team Penske driver made it count on the seventh occasion. Having competed in over 300 Cup Series races, Blaney currently possesses 10 wins and most importantly, a championship to his name. The 30-year-old driver&#8217;s talent lies not only on the track but also off it. Alongside his impressive racing career, the #12 driver has starred in several movies and TV shows. Not only has that boosted his net worth but has also helped him increase his fanbase. Ryan Blaneyâ€™s Early Life Ryan Blaney was born on the last day of 1993 in Hartford Township, Trumbull County, Ohio. He is of Irish descent and a third-generation race car driver. Interestingly, his father, Dave Blaney, used to race in NASCAR competitions while his grandfather, Lou Blaney was a modified dirt track racer.

Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports Safe to say, racing has always been in Blaneyâ€™s blood. However, he would take immense pride in realizing that he has been the most successful racer in his family. Having started his racing career at the age of nine, he began with quarter midget racing. While racing has been an eye-catching prospect for Blaney, the same can be even said for his siblings. Ryan Blaneyâ€™s Wife and Children Dave Blaney and his wife Lisa have three children. Ryan Blaney is the middle child and only son of his parents. His elder sister Emma is married to driver Cale Conley. On the other hand, his younger sister Erin is currently dating Hendrick Motorsports driver William Byron. While it is a tricky situation for Erin with both Blaney and Byron being in the Cup Series, both drivers have handled it quite well. As far as Ryan Blaney&#8217;s dating life is concerned, he has been in a long and loving relationship with Hooters model and executive Gianna Tulio.       View this post on Instagram            A post shared by Ryan Blaney (@ryanblaney10)  The couple made their relationship public when they went together on a vacation to Vail, Colorado. Gianna can often be seen at race tracks supporting her man as she was right there when Blaney registered his 2023 Cup Series championship victory. Shortly after winning the title, Blaney popped the million-dollar question to his girlfriend, and the two got engaged on December 12, 2023. Hopefully, the wedding bells arenâ€™t far away either. Ryan Blaneyâ€™s Net Worth Ryan Blaney perhaps is one of the highest-paid drivers in NASCAR today, especially given his last yearâ€™s heroics. As per Equity Atlas, his net worth is $12 million. This is projected to reach an impressive $20 million by the end of 2024. It is likely given the progress Blaney has been making in the past few years. The #12 driver signed a contract extension with Team Penske in 2022 but there is no solid information yet regarding his annual salary as per his current contract. Given that he has starred in several movies and shows, it has only helped boost his total net worth in recent years. Ryan Blaneyâ€™s Career Timeline Ryan Blaney started his racing career at a very young age and looked impressive. At the age of 12, he won the Loweâ€™s Motor Speedway Young Lions Winter Heat Point Championship. He made his debut in the ARCA Racing Series and the NASCAR K&amp;N Pro Series West and East in 2011. His driving skills saw him earn praise from Tony Stewart and Kevin Harvick in his early days in NASCAR. In fact, in 2012, he earned his debut in the Truck Series. His win at Iowa Speedway in September 2012 made him the youngest winner in the Truck Series then. WHOâ€™S WON HERE? @Blaney has! In 2012, Blaney earned his first career @NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series win at Iowa! He returned in 2015 and DOMINATED the Xfinity Series race! Congrats to the champ, and we look forward to having you back! pic.twitter.com/bpMZdv6b6u â€” Iowa Speedway (@iowaspeedway) November 10, 2023 Two years later, he made his NASCAR Cup Series debut. Eventually, in 2016, he completed his first full-time season. From 2018, Blaney has been associated with Team Penske. With them, it has only taken his performance to the next level. Â His championship victory last season is a testament to his hard work and never-give-up attitude. No wonder, sponsors are very keen on being associated with Blaney. Ryan Blaney Endorsements As far as sponsorships go, the 2023 Cup Series champion has those in abundance. As per the Team Penske website, the driver&#8217;s primary sponsors are Menards, Discount Tire, BODYARMOR, DEX Imaging, Advance Auto Parts, WURTH, Wabash, Range Leather, Black Buffalo, Dent Wizard, Flag &amp; Anthem and Pennzoil. Speaking about his primary sponsor Menards last year, Ryan Blaney couldnâ€™t be more happy with them. As reported by Forbes, he said, â€œIâ€™ve been lucky to have the Menards partnership and Advance Auto Parts and Ford. Everybody has been amazing. On the Menards side, theyâ€™re been part of motorsports for a long time and John Menard is a huge race fan. He loves everything about racing. I love those guys up there.â€ Ryan Blaneyâ€™s NASCAR Career Stats To date, Ryan Blaney has been a strong force in the Cup Series. He has 10 victories to his name in over 300 race appearances. In fact, in his eight full-time seasons, only once has he missed out on making it to the playoffs. So far, he has 69 top-five and 131 top-ten finishes, showcasing his amazing consistency. Even his Xfinity Series record looks impressive with seven wins in 70 races. With the age very much on his side, it is interesting to see the number of records Blaney breaks in the coming years. Ryan Blaney NASCAR Records From a young age, Ryan Blaney has adopted the habit of breaking records. His win in the Truck Series at Iowa Speedway came at 18 years, eight months, and 15 days, making him the youngest driver then to do so. With four wins in the Truck Series, seven wins in the Xfinity Series, and 10 wins in the Cup Series, Ryan Blaney is one of only 40 drivers to win in all three series. It is a massive record considering the sport has been 75 years old now. Ryan Blaneyâ€™s Achievements and Awards Ryan Blaney has making a lot of noise with his performances ever since he entered NASCAR. During his debut season in the NASCAR K&amp;N Pro Series at Phoenix, he registered his first in just his third race. His 2014 Truck Series campaign was a memorable one as he won once, finished in the top five 12 times, and 17 times in the top ten. In fact, he also went on to win the Most Popular Driver Award in the Truck Series that year. His second full-time Cup Series season with Wood Brothers Racing gave the team their best finish since 1995. That very season, Blaney finished ninth with one win, four top-five, and 14 top-ten finishes. In the same year, he helped Team Penske earn their fourth Xfinity Series Owners Championship win. RYAN BLANEY BY INCHES. WHAT A FINISH. TALLADEGA, EVERYONE. pic.twitter.com/3HPeOvSm8X â€” FOX: NASCAR (@NASCARONFOX) October 1, 2023 Blaneyâ€™s an expert when it comes to racing at Talladega Superspeedway. His victory at the track in June 2020 made him the first driver to win back-to-back races at the track since 2007. In 2021, for the first time in his Cup Series career, he finished the season with more than one win, one of which again included a win at Talladega. The following year, Blaney made a sensational run at Texas Motor Speedway to win his first-ever NASCAR All-Star race, winning the $1 million prize. Last season, he once again recorded a win at Talladega and eventually ended up winning the championship title. This helped Team Penske earn their 44th national championship. Ryan Blaney Charity and Foundations In 2009, the Blaney family was dealt a heartbreaking loss when Lou Blaney passed away at the age of just 69 due to Alzheimer&#8217;s. As a result, the family started a charitable foundation to raise awareness about brain health and support people struggling with Alzheimer&#8217;s or concussion-related injuries. The charity is based in North Carolina and is called Ryan Blaney Foundation. The 2023 Cup Series champion was close to his grandfather and his loss impacted him in a big way. A statement on the charity website read, &#8220;We lost our father and grandfather, Lou Blaney, to Alzheimerâ€™s disease when he was just 69 years old. It is a horribly difficult disease for both the person and family it affects.&#8221; Further, it read, &#8220;When we felt lost and did not know where to get the answers we needed, it was our local chapter of the Alzheimerâ€™s Association that provided us not only with accurate and useful information, but with compassionate support for the whole family.&#8221; The Ryan Blaney Foundation raises money primarily through donations. The organization offers help offering important resources and information to raise awareness about the respective diseases. They have online and in-person support groups and a 24/7 hotline. The organization also helps in the research aspect towards finding a cure for Alzheimer&#8217;s and they have a close relationship with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) Sports Medicine Concussion Clinic. Ryan Blaney in Media It is a shame that Ryan Blaney has not appeared in any Star Wars movies or TV series but there&#8217;s other stuff he has done in cinema. He voiced the character Ryan &#8216;Inside&#8217; Laney in Cars 3 alongside several other NASCAR stars like Bubba Wallace, Chase Elliott, and Jeff Gordon to name a few. The Team Penske star also made an appearance in the 2017 film &#8220;Logan Lucky&#8221;. He has also played Special Agent Nathan Wood in the TV series &#8220;Taken&#8221; in 2018. The 2023 Cup Series champion is technically a Netflix star with a cameo appearance in Netflix&#8217;s television series The Crew. He was also a podcaster with Kim Coon and Chuck Bush. The 3 started the Glass Case of Emotion podcast in 2017 which saw its final episode after Blaney won the Cup Series in 2023. Ryan Blaney has also had a stint as a media executive with Fox. He joined as a pit reporter with Erik Jones and Ricky Stenhouse Jr in the Xfinity Series in 2017. He also interviewed Brad Keselowski once after the former Cup Series champion won a race at Pocono. It could be an interesting career choice for Blaney after he retires from the sport.
