Everybody knows about how Chase Elliott’s 2023 season got ruined after a 6-race-long hiatus earlier this year. However, his fans know that the 27-year-old Georgian is pulling no punches in putting up a strong show for the owner’s championship. It seems like Elliott and Alan Gustafson are finding their lost mojo back again.

The NASCAR Cup Series is the pinnacle of the racing arrangement in the NASCAR classification. The arrangement started in 1949 and was called the Strictly Stock Division. The series was subsequently known as the Grand National Division from 1950 to 1970.

The NASCAR Series started renting its naming rights to the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company in 1971; it was alluded to as the NASCAR Winston Cup Series (1971–2003). In 2003, NASCAR made the arrangement with Nextel, giving birth to the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series (2004–2007).

Sprint obtained Nextel in 2005 and 2008 saw the arrangement renamed as the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. Sprint remained the sponsor of the NASCAR Cup from 2008 to 2016.

It was reported in December 2016 that Monster Energy would be the sponsor; therefore, the arrangement was renamed the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series from 2017 to 2019.
