  • Chase Elliott was seen by many as being the absolute best driver in the NASCAR Cup Series in 2022. The man was the most consistent as well as the winningest driver all season and when looking at the season as a whole he scored more points than anybody. Yet when you look at the NASCAR Cup Series standings Chase Elliott is scored as finishing 4th. So what happened? This is Missing Rings: Chase Elliott 2022.

    Chase still would've won the title under the old Winston format, but man he fell apart at the end of that season. Under the Winston format, because people love to bring it up when it makes their guy look good, Elliott would've won narrowly after looking like a threat to lock it up multiple races in advance after Talladega, just not a strong end of the year to the guy who dominated the summer...

    I think it was the right call making the first missing rings of this season be about Chase Elliott. He was a more deserving champion than logano in my opinion.
    But I feel like you're going to have to do another one about Denny Hamlin for 2022. Even though he was just as inconsistent, if not more so, as anyone else in the field having that win taken away costing the points he would have needed to advance from Martinsville to Phoenix. Finishing second three times in a row in the opening round and not getting a single win there also cost him the points he would have needed. He was close to being hail melon proof at the end of martinsville. Or even looking at how his pit crew cost him spots on the final three pit stops of the Martinsville race. If the pit crew performs at the end of Martinsville the way they had at the beginning and middle portions of the race, Hamlin likely wins and Chastain doesn't even need to perform the hail melon in order to get to Phoenix.
    There are plenty of big stories this year, perhaps Kurt Busch deserves a spotlight for this season given his performance and the reason for his missing the playoffs, but unfortunately Hamlin deserves another missing rings special for this season, at some point.

    Actually? Gustafson's strategy to pit him in stage 2 probably was the best of the four drivers because then he didn't have to wait on fuel during the stage break pit stop. Logano did have to wait, and as a result Logano came out 5th and Elliott came out 6th. I thought the tide was about to turn in the race when that happened...but you kno....then the #9 choked again... 👀

    The missing cup. Chase Elliott was unstoppable this year and he would have been the real champion instead of Logano had there been a season-long format. Logano was the best car that race and that is all there is to it. But what a season Chase had. Chase Elliott was my mother's favorite driver, and she would have been happy about this year but also disappointed because he did so well but could not win the Cup. That three race winning streak was pretty good though. Chase has nothing to hang his head over.

    A 1 race championship means the championship 4 has become more prestigious and the championship a little less prestigious. The championship is still the biggest thing but it just doesn't mean what it used to and what it should.
    Chase took advantage of the playoffs in 2020 and won the championship. Chase won the Winston format this year and made the championship 4. He was the best this year. Luckily he already has a championship where he wasn't quite the best so it balances out.
    I just wish it wasn't one race at the end to decide it. I'm ok with the playoffs but I wish the final round was a 3 race round starting even in points.

    Elliott is joining the club that got robbed by the playoffs when it came to leading the series with a best average finish. Jeff Gordon (2004, 2007, and 2014), Carl Edwards (2008 and 2011) and Kevin Harvick (2010, 2015, 2016, and 2020). Just shows playoffs are here for entertainment and not crown a legitimate champion. Elliott's title quest in 2022 should of been more deserving than 2020. He is best with collecting the most points this season when Iceberg puts the Winston standings every Wednesdays plus racing reference shows that when looking at the bottom of the results page. He could of clinched at Martinsville. Chase Elliott came from the old racing order where average finish was everything. He won 2014 Nationwide Series Championship because he the most consistent driver that year plus 3 wins, 16 top 5s, 26 top 10s, average finish of 8, and 0 dnf's. I already beginning to fear that his racing profile soon might not fit into what NASCAR thrives on today. Chaos, aggressive driving, intentional wrecks, no need of putting together a consistent season. Shame on you NASCAR, Steve Phelps, Steve O Donnel, and everyone who favors entertainment over racing. Plus winning the championship isn't prestigious as it once was. Just a bonus.

      I swear if there was a luck spectrum, Chase would be on one end and Joey on the other. That just seems how it goes for the two. Joey seems to catch the breaks and Chase always seems like he is in an uphill battle against stupidity. I figured it would eventually even out, but it just doesn't seem too.

    His playoff inconsistency doesn't matter once he got into Phoenix IMO. Sure momentum helps a little but not a huge difference.
    Their strategy call worked to gain spots as well as get an extra pit stop for adjustments. He didn't finish the stage as high as he was before putting but he gained more spots from the stage break pit stop because he didn't have to wait on fuel like the others.
    At the time of that restart his car was the best it had been all day and he was right next to Joey. It very easily could've been chase winning the championship instead of Joey if chase didn't spin.

    Strongly disagree that the strategy call didn't work. Came in 9th, got back up to 12th before the stage end and the shorter pit stop because they still had fuel, moved him up to 6th, best of the championship 4. Plus an additional adjustment on the field which they desperately needed
