Ashley Anderson expresses her feelings on ‘Bubs’ Chase Elliott’s birthday, hints at a brewing relationship with the HMS star

Chase Elliott's NASCAR Awards Ceremony date Ashley Anderson has made her feelings known on the Hendrick Motorsports driver's birthday. The two are yet to confirm whether they are dating but their recent appearance has become a talking point in the community.

Anderson recently attended NASCAR's annual event with the HMS driver. The duo cherished their time, meeting and greeting fellow drivers and their companions. Elliott wrapped his 2024 season in P7 and won the Most Popular Driver Award for the seventh consecutive time.

Hours after the ceremony, Ashley shared an IG post with the 2020 Cup Series champion, photographed by Ryan Blaney's fiance Gianna, as they stood on the red carpet. It quickly gained traction in the community and birthed the notion of their dating. However, a conclusive revelation is yet to surface.

While the fraternity celebrated Thanksgiving, Chase Elliott celebrated the festival and his 29th birthday (Nov. 28). Ashley was with the HMS driver in the celebrations and made her feelings known through her Instagram story.

"Happiest Birthday Bubs! Thankful for you 🎉🥰🎂😘," Ashley wrote.

Despite no concrete information about their relationship, Ashley's heartfelt messages and recent developments with Elliott hint at a brewing relationship.

Chase Elliott gets a sponsorship deal on his birthday

Amid the silly season, Chase Elliott has secured a five-race sponsorship deal with UniFirst. The billionaire business uniform provider company debuted with the #9 Chevy driver at the Richmond Raceway this past season and primarily backed the Georgian native's rides for five Cup Series races.

On Elliott's birthday, UniFirst announced a fresh deal with the Hendrick Motorsports driver for the 2025 season. The five-race partnership will begin at the regular season race at the Homestead-Miami Speedway, followed by Darlington, Michigan, and Richmond. The playoff battle at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Road Course will mark UniFirst's final primary sponsorship for the 2025 campaign.

It's worth mentioning that, unlike the 2024 paint scheme when the #9 Chevy Camaro was covered in a green-white paint combination, the upcoming scheme will comprise an all-green palate with bold white lettering and matte black paint running through the bottom of the NextGen car.

Chase Elliott secured a solitary win this season at the Texas Motor Speedway and collected 11 top-5 and 19 top-10s. He made it until the Round of 8 but couldn't advance to the Championship Race after falling short at the elimination race hosted by the Martinsville Speedway.

The #9 Chevy driver emerged as the runner-up. However, since he entered the XFINITY 500 race in a must-win situation, his remarkable run couldn't help with his title bid.

William Byron was the only HMS driver who fought for the title, but he too couldn't get a trophy for Rick Hendrick as Joey Logano reigned supreme.
