Hendrick Motorsports unveils 2022 Napa Auto Parts paint scheme for Chase Elliott

Hendrick Motorsports

    A new Napa Auto Parts paint scheme for Chase Elliott and the No. 9 team was unveiled on Sunday morning (01/09/2022) by Hendrick Motorsports. The 2022 NASCAR Cup Series Season will mark 9 years of Napa's sponsorship of Chase Elliott, as the partnership dates back to his NASCAR Xfinity Series days with JR Motorsports. 

Napa Auto Parts has ridden with Elliott as the primary sponsor for eight of his 13 NASCAR Cup Series victories, and four of 5 NASCAR Xfinity Series wins. In those nine years of partnership, the duo has won the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series Championship and the 2014 NASCAR Nationwide Series Championship together. The upcoming season means that they will be once again, chasing wins and a second championship on the NASCAR Cup Series level.

The Napa blue and yellow trademark colors have always looked sharp on the No. 9 Chevrolet Camaro but brings the updated scheme to a new level with the Next Gen cars debut in 2022. This design uses the newly created space from the new number placement. Once again, I must comment on the extra Chevrolet "bowtie" about the normal logo placement, as they now have TWO, Chevrolet "bowties" placed on the nose of the Camaro. Besides that, the scheme looks completely different from the Napa schemes from the past few years.

Special new year.
Special new look.🤩
