For the Hendrick Motorsports driver lineup, both Chase Elliott (2020) and Kyle Larson (2021) have earned championship-clinching victories at the 1-mile oval. William Byron was also victorious in 2023's spring race at Phoenix and while Alex Bowman has yet to find victory lane here, his first ever start at the track saw him sit on the pole and lead 196 laps before finishing sixth.
Bowman will also pilot the No. 17 HendrickCars.com Chevrolet in the NASCAR Xfinity Series this weekend. Catch that race at 5 p.m. ET on Saturday on the CW.
