Chase Elliott Finishes Seventh In Rain-Shortened Coca-Cola 600
3 months agoOn Sunday night, Chase Elliott finished seventh in the rain-shortened Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Sunday's race marked the sixth top-10 finish in the last eight races for the second-generation Cup star, which ties him for the most over this span in the Cup Series. While we will never know what could have been given that the race ended with 151 laps remaining, it did not look as if the No. 9 had enough speed to rival Christopher Bell, who led a race-high 90 laps. Although you can never count a driver the caliber of Chase Elliott out, given that he led just two of the 249 laps that were completed and that he only managed to record four fastest laps on the night, it seems unlikely that he was going to do enough to return value on his $9,300 DraftKings salary even if the race would have been run in full. Up next for the Chase Elliott and the entire Cup Series is a trip to World Wide Technology Raceway (Gateway) for Sunday's Enjoy Illinois 300.
