“Undermined” Chase Elliott Fans Slam Disrespectful NASCAR Snub as Hendrick Motorsports Star Left Out Again

Well, the season is coming to an end, with the final round of the 2022 playoffs this weekend. Everyone has predictions on who might take the victory at Phoenix. Unsurprisingly, fans are not happy with the predictions of some of the most prominent NASCAR analysts, as Chase Elliott being neglected has led to some reactions.

Who will really take the win this season?

In typical NASCAR Twitter fashion, the analysts post their playoff predictions. Surprisingly though, this season, no one picked Chase Elliott. In fact, after Ross Chastain’s bizarre move at Martinsville, two of the three picked him!

Kyle Petty and Kim Coon both think the watermelon man will take the flag at the season finale. While Parker Kligerman believes Joey Logano will take his second cup series title this season. Unfortunately, no one picked Chase Elliott, despite him already having experience winning at Phoenix.

Of course, fans of the Hendrick Motorsports drivers didn’t like how he was neglected by all the analysts.

All three analysts certainly got on the bad side of Elliott fans. But what do you think? Are their predictions correct? Or maybe Chase Elliott will win the title? Or, maybe Christopher Bell will set the example for a wild-card playoff winner, considering the amount of ‘wait what just happened’ moments the fans witnessed this season.

Chase Elliott has mixed emotions

Elliott sure made it to the top 4 in the drivers’ standings. Unfortunately, he failed to make it to the top of the owners’ standings. Surprisingly, he’s worried about other HMS cars not making it to the top.

He said, “Yeah, super mixed emotions. We made the driver’s side and didn’t make the owner’s side. Just would have loved to have gotten the boss two cars in there. So certainly excited from the driver standpoint, but would have loved to have gotten both those boxes checked. Unfortunately didn’t.”
