.CBellRacing escaped elimination with clutch victories at Charlotte and then again at Martinsville, thanks to the man atop the pit box. That crew chief is Adam Stevens, who is making his sixth Championship4 appearance and hunting his THIRD title:
did, hoping to steal the win with a track position grab. No matter the situation, Bell has always put his trust in that man atop the pit box.
"I never question him," said Bell."Even at Martinsville, whenever we pitted for tires, I think I restarted sixth, I felt a lot better winning at the road course whenever I was 12th with tires than I did at Martinsville. I thought that one was going to be a lot harder. "I never questioned him. That's his job. I think that's one thing we really do well: he lets me do my job, and I let him do his job."
Bell expects pit road to play a major role in the race, just as it did in last year's finale. And that all starts with qualifying, which one can parlay into the best pit stall selection. That's good news for Bell, who has been one of the best qualifiers in the Cup Series this year. He has the third highest average starting position among full-time drivers and is tied with"Yeah, it's huge," he said.
In truth, Bell has been here before. At Charlotte and Martinsville, where it was win or nothing. That's exactly what Phoenix has come down to every single year since this format was introduced in 2014, and this combination of driver and crew chief have already proven their worth in those high-pressure situations.
