11:31 PM Dale Earnhardt Jr. report | |
Will Dale Earnhardt Jr. finally get a Sprint Cup championship this year? Will Dale Earnhardt Jr. win another race this season? Is it true that Steve Letarte (Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s crew chief) will be leaving the number 88 team after the 2014 season? Age: 39 years old Height: 6' 0" Weight: 165 lbs Car number: 88 Car make: Chevy SS Rookie year: 2000 Team: Hendrick Motorsports Standings from past three years: 12th (2011 season) 5th (2012 season) 2nd (2013 season) Achievements: - 1998 Nationwide Series champion (At that time the Busch Series) - 1999 Nationwide Series champion (At that time the Busch Series) - 2004, and 2014 Daytona 500 winner - 2003 and 2008 Sprint Unlimited winner - 2000 Sprint All-Star Race winner Awards: - 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 Sprint Cup Most Popular Driver - 1999 Nationwide Series Most Popular Driver (At that time the Busch Series) Statistics in the Sprint Cup: Wins: 20 Top tens: 207 Poles: 13 Statistics in the Nationwide Series: Wins: 23 Top tens: 83 Poles: 10 Dale Earnhardt Jr. started off the 2014 Sprint Cup season with three top 2 finishes in the first four races. Dale Earnhardt Jr. definitely has a shot for the 2014 Sprint Cup championship if he continues this trend. It's hard to tell where someone will win and where they won't but I would definitely keep an eye on Jr. for the Coke Zero 400, (Daytona International Speedway) Aaron's 499, and the Geico 500. (Both at Talladega Superspeedway) It is true that Steve Letarte is leaving Hendrick Motorsports and is moving to NBC. He will be a NASCAR commentator for NBC in 2015. | |
