Chase Elliott misses to secure a spot in the playoffs
Chase Elliott has never missed to make it to the playoffs since 2016. But this year due to a string of unfortunate incidents and bad luck he failed to make it.
Even though he finished fourth at Daytona, Elliott seemed a little disappointed.
"It's a bummer, for sure. Hate the season has worked out like it has. The good news is the car got in in the owner's points. That's a big deal." he said during the post-race interview (via NASCAR)
He continued,
"...Certainly going to be some lessons taken from it, and I think we'll be better for it on the other end."
Elliott has proven his speed and this year's full-time drivers have a fifth-best average finish. However, he was forced to compete in a must-win position after missing six races because of a leg injury and a seventh after receiving a suspension for intentionally wrecking Denny Hamlin.
Even though Elliott is no longer eligible for the driver's championship, he still hopes that he could learn things from this season.
