· Yahoo Sports

Hendrick Motorsports will enter the 2027 NASCAR Cup Series season with one big question. Will Alex Bowman return to the No. 48 car? Kyle Larson, Chase Elliott, and William Byron will all come back to their respective rides, but will Bowman continue driving the No. 48 car following his battle with vertigo and below-average performances?

While Bowman is scheduled to become a free agent, Motorsports Wire is predicting that he will return to the No. 48 car for Hendrick Motorsports. In fact, it might be more likely that he retires than drives for another organization in 2027. If Bowman wants to keep racing, the No. 48 car should be waiting for him.

It has been a very tough 2026 NASCAR season for the No. 48 team, and it is clear that changes need to occur going into 2027. Bowman makes sense on a one-year contract alongside Larson, Elliott, and Byron. Bowman's future at Hendrick Motorsports is likely a short-term journey, but he should be good for 2027 if he wants to keep driving.
