William Clyde "Chase" Elliott II (born November 28, 1995)[1] is an American professional stock car racing driver. He competes full-time in the NASCAR Cup Series, driving the No. 9 Chevrolet ZL1 for Hendrick Motorsports.[2] Elliott won the 2014 NASCAR Nationwide Series championship, becoming the first rookie and the youngest driver to win a national series championship in NASCAR history.
Elliott began racing full-time in the NASCAR Cup Series in 2016, taking over the iconic No. 24 Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports, previously driven by Jeff Gordon.[2] That same year, he earned the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Rookie of the Year award. In 2020, he won the Cup Series championship in Phoenix, Arizona, marking Hendrick Motorsports' first title since 2016. Elliott has amassed 19 career Cup Series victories, including seven on road courses.
He is the son of 1988 Winston Cup Series champion Bill Elliott. The Elliotts are the third father-son duo in NASCAR history to win championships, joining Lee and Richard Petty, as well as Ned and Dale Jarrett.
