CONCORD, N.C. –\u00a0Even in its illustrious history at race tracks across the United States, there’s a case to be made for Dover Motor Speedway being the best for Hendrick Motorsports<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Even among the current crop of drivers, the numbers are eye popping. Chase Elliott<\/a> has a pair of wins at the Monster Mile with Kyle Larson<\/a> and Alex Bowman each registering one. Bowman’s, which came in May of 2021, came as part of a 1-2-3-4 sweep<\/a>, only the fourth such occurrence in the history of the NASCAR Cup\u00a0Series.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Elliott has finished in the top five 10 times in his career at the 1-mile, high-banked oval, the most of any race track on his ledger. Larson’s 938 laps led are second among active drivers behind only Kyle Busch. His\u00a0career average finish of 8.2 at Dover is tops with Elliott right behind in second at 9.5.\u00a0<\/p>\n

William Byron has three fourth-place finishes in his last five Dover starts.\u00a0<\/p>\n

All told, Hendrick Motorsports<\/a> is the all-time leader at Dover in wins (22), top fives (81), top 10s (127) and laps led (7,624).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at each driver’s history at the track as well as a brush up on Hendrick Motorsports history:\u00a0<\/p>\n
