Jeff Gordon
NASCAR Tickets – Hendrick Motorsports Copes Johnson, Gordon Tiff
Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon both drive for Hendrick Motorsports. They both collected four NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championships each. The two consistently compete for wins every weekend during the spring and summer as top contenders for the Chase. At what point Jimmie Johnson Jeff Gordon will start stepping on each other's toes?
Now. Johnson and Gordon, perhaps the two best drivers on the NASCAR circuit, his good-natured competitors in the past decade, but she has just crossed a line between friendly and fierce. A rivalry boiled and bubbled over during the month of April, when Johnson accidentally Gordon setbacks caused for two matches in a row (at Texas and Talladega).
NASCAR Race Fans with tickets <a href="http://www.stubhub.com/nascar-tickets/"> </ A> to April 19th Sprint Cup race at Texas saw a Hendrick Motorsports ignite rivalry as the No. 24 and No. 48 cars in tangled up on lap 241 334 at the Texas Motor Speedway. Both cars were running for the leadership, but Johnson's reactions to Gordon's intensity resulted in a porthole that Gordon left a large pile-up later in the race.
As if that was not enough to get upset Gordon, Johnson's car the following week brought Gordon back, this time Johnson clearly at fault. Gordon's mangled car eventually crossed the finish line in 22nd place, but he expressed his frustration with his teammate in a statement USA Today picked up the saying: "The 48 is testing my patience, I can tell you that. The piece lasts one to make me crazy … I do not know what it is with me and him. "
Both Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson later chalked their emotions in a healthy rivalry and hard race, but fell on eyes and owner Rick Hendrick Motorsports Hendrick in the days after the 'Dega race to smoothly over the situation. After talking with both drivers, Johnson told USA Today that Hendrick told him: "You have your opinion, grip things on the track as you see fit, but let's not carry on too far and affect the race shop. "
Essentially, Rick Hendrick staying out of the situation and his two top riders duke it out for the No. 1 spot – and that's not all a bad thing. Competition is indeed the bread and butter of NASCAR's signs, and a Gordon / Johnson feud attention can only bring the circuit. Also, there's nothing like a good rivalry to get a fire lit under drivers, and that is exactly what Gordon now needs to be over four years malaise (or four years of Johnson's winning streak) and another Sprint Cup championship claim.
Jeff Gordon is, after all, the one who lobbied for Jimmie Johnson to score a place on his team with Hendrick Motorsports in 1996. Gordon, the fastest NASCAR driver ever to reach 50 career wins, was on top of the circuit in the mid-'90s, when Johnson jumped aboard his crew, who won the series championship in 1995, 1997, 1998 and 2001. As the years progressed, however, Gordon's protege eventually overshadowed him, and Johnson has now won the last four consecutive Cup titles.
This year Jeff Gordon's # 24 drive extremely fast, and he has a chance to steal back the Sprint Cup Series championship in the Chase if he continues the hard drive with minimal casualties. As of now, Jeff Gordon from a second place finish in Richmond on May 1 and is sixth overall in the driver standings. Jimmie Johnson sits comfortably at No. 2.
