The New York track has been a strong one for the Rick Hendrick-owned team, with the organization earning 10 victories there. Jeff Gordon's four wins lead the way, but Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson have two wins each at the 2.45-mile track. Tim Richmond and Ricky Rudd also earned triumphs for the team at The Glen. In fact, Elliott (2018-19) and Larson's (2021-22) victories are part of four straight wins for Hendrick Motorsports at Watkins Glen. There was no race at this track in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Larson will sport the classic HendrickCars.com look at the No. 5 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1. Since joining Hendrick Motorsports for the 2021 season, the 31-year-old driver has four road course wins.
