Jeff Gordon will drive a special paint scheme celebrating 20 Years of DuPont and Hendrick Motorsports. Since his debut in the Sprint Cup Series, Gordon has 86 wins.
“DuPont gave a young guy with a dream a shot – and I’ll never forget that,” said Gordon. “They have been a partner in so many more ways than just sponsoring our team. Over two decades, not only have they supported the business of racing at Hendrick Motorsports and my career, but we have built very strong relationships with all of the DuPont employees.
