American · Dawsonville, USA · Born 28 November 1995American NASCAR driver who won the 2020 Cup Series Championship and four consecutive Most Popular Driver Awards, following in his Hall of Fame father's footstep
Chase Elliott is NASCAR's most popular driver — as voted by fans for multiple consecutive years — and a former Cup Series champion who combines exceptional technical ability with an impressive public profile. His 2020 championship, which ended Hendrick Motorsports' championship drought, and his consistent contention season after season have made him one of the sport's most reliable stars. Elliott's 2020 championship snapped a run of near-misses that had made him one of NASCAR's most popular yet unfulfilled title contenders, and he continued to be a perennial playoff qualifier and multiple-time Most Popular Driver award winner through the mid-2020s.
