There’s no doubt about it. William Byron, Jr. (that is technically his real name) is the best driver at Hendrick this year, and he’s really come out of his shell in terms of performance. If I had to pick someone to win the title other than my favorite current driver, it would be him.

if he was more consistent then I’d agree. this reminds of be of alex bowmans 2021 season (which is still good under this format and car competition) so despite larson having less wins I think hes been more consistently top 10 just under the radar

@PowerSteer that’s a good point, but I think Byron’s been the stronger driver in terms of straight up raw power this year. Nevertheless, it’ll be interesting to see who makes it to Phoenix this year… as long as it isn’t Hamlin the hypocrite.

I’d argue Larson is back to his level if not better but I can see why people think Byron is

If he could just be more consistent he would hands down be the best hendrick driver. I would definitely still go with Larson over Byron, but the amount of improvement he has shown is very impressive.

Larson is the best driver at Hendrick, period!

Byron is the man.
I never liked Gordon or the 24 as a kid.
But I like Byron for who he is. Just a clean racing machine.

Eric just speaking to the talent of the year is crazy. I think we all hope to see Montreal on the schedule.

Byron has come on a long way since his NWP interview in 2020 before the Daytona race he won. 9 wins and 5 playoff berths later.

Willy B! What a coup interview to get such a high talent who must be in great demand this time of the year! Congratulations Eric!

WIlliam’s first win was the first race I attended with my daughter. After the race I enrolled in Liberty University. Almost finished with my Masters in Divinity and it was partly inspired by William’s win. William needs to finish his degree though. 😉
