This week with so much on the line for Chase Elliott, let’s look back on his back-to-back wins at Watkins Glen in 2018 and 2019. Of course, that 2018 win was the first of Elliott’s NASCAR Cup Series career. Then, he went and backed it up the year after.
In both races, Chase Elliott dueled with Martin Truex Jr. until the very end. It was a seminal moment for Elliott to grab the win in 2018, and it broke the seal for him in his Cup career. Many will tell you that his win in 2018 solidified him as NASCAR’s Most Popular Driver.
They say you never forget your first. After a strong race at Indy on the road course, Elliott will try to repeat his success at Watkins Glen. The place where all of that winning began.
