LLumar unveils 2022 paint scheme for Chase Elliott

Hendrick Motorsports

    Hendrick Motorsports unveiled this past week that LLumar will return to sponsor Chase Elliott and the No. 9 Chevrolet Camaro for two NASCAR Cup Series events during the 2022 Season. They released the new paint scheme, looking much like the one Elliott ran during 2021, but with some differences. 

Looking at the side view of the No. 9 machine (See Image below), the LLumar logo is placed in the new space next to the door number, which has slid towards the front wheel well. However, that leaves a large space above the rear wheel well, a space that will likely be left empty unless filled by an associate sponsor. On many of the other schemes we have seen on the Gen 7 car, is that the web page or a logos wordmark fits wonderful there. Unfortunately, I do not know if LLumar has a wordmark to fill that gap.

Overall, the "new" scheme looks sharp, but could look better with a few changes. I still find it odd that on all of the Hendrick Motorsports 2022 paint schemes that have been released, have an extra Chevrolet "Bowtie" logo on the hood, above the normal placement between the headlights of the Camaro.

This No. 9 LLumar machine is scheduled to hit the track at Circuit of the Americas in March, and once again at Martinsville in April.
