Check out Rick Hendrick’s comments on the 25th anniversary of his first victory during this weekend’s race at Martinsville.
Will Jeff Gordon Win This Year?
Last year Jeff hit a less than glamorous milestone, a winless season for the first time in his career. So, the question will be asked, “Will Jeff Gordon win this year?” Well, of course! He has been very competitive in each of the 3 races this year and is now atop the points leader board. The team is already leaps and bounds better than they were last year at this time.

Gatorade Duel In-Car Audio
All the doors that closed one time have opened up again for Jeff Gordon as he scored the victory in the first Gatorade Duel at Daytona on Thursday afternoon. Gordon’s victory assures him of the 3rd starting spot in Sunday’s Daytona 500. It was Gordon’s first NASCAR series win in 16 months. He ran in the top-3 for nearly the entire 60-lap event. He took the lead for the first time on lap 37, and relinquished the top spot after pit stops with 10 laps to go. Gordon eventually worked his way back to the front with drafting help from Jimmie Johnson, and traded the lead several times with Tony Stewart in the final six laps. A strong drafting push by Joey Logano pushed Gordon back into the lead with two laps to go. Gordon held off Stewart to claim the victory.
