Could Hocevar Really Replace Chase in the 9?

After Chad Knaus was spotted congratulating Carson Hocevar post-Nashville, the rumor mill is in overdrive about the No. 9 seat. Hocevar’s aggressive style and recent shoutouts from HMS legends have fans wondering if he could take over for Chase Elliott, despite Chase’s winless streak but strong points standing. Most agree it’d be wild to swap out NASCAR’s Most Popular Driver, but silly season never fails to surprise. What do you think—just smoke, or is there fire? #NASCAR #HendrickMotorsports #ChaseElliott #Sports
