Texas fans show why NASCAR needs to figure out their track, an untimely crash hurts the race leaders and Hendrick makes more history.
Hendrick Motorsports’ 300th victory is an eye-popping number that lacks context at the same time. Two years ago, Hendrick became the all-time winningest NASCAR team when it passed Petty Enterprises with Victory No. 269. And now it’s already at 300, with no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
It’s difficult to even put such a number into perspective. The next-closest active team is Joe Gibbs Racing with 207 — a whopping 93 wins behind Hendrick. Even if JGR continues to be a powerhouse team, it could take over a decade to reach 300 . Beyond that? RFK Racing’s 141 victories aren’t even half of Hendrick’s total. So the still-rising Hendrick number might end up as one of NASCAR’s most untouchable records — right up there with Richard Petty’s 200 wins. It just feels impossible any other organization could ever replicate what Hendrick has done, with its steady excellence over decades.
In some ways, the way Hendrick won Sunday’s race was symbolic of its team-wide strength. Larson was going to give team owner Rick Hendrick an easy victory with a blazing fast car until he crashed; but when that happened, another Hendrick driver stepped up and won instead.
