Chase Briscoe has emerged as one of the better drivers on track this year. The JGR debutant was desperate for good results this year as he had to prove his racing skills to the team. Briscoe has done exactly that and has clinched his position in the Championship-4 to fight for the title once again. As such, his teammate, Christopher Bell, opened up on the #19 driver’s performances this year.

Chase Briscoe‘s debut year with Joe Gibbs Racing, following his SHR exit, has been quite impressive. The debutant has picked up three race wins this season, with one coming in the regular season.

As such, his teammate Christopher Bell, who barely missed out on qualifying for the championship finale based on points, is glad atleast the #19 driver has made the cut. Christopher Bell suffered from a woeful slump mid-way through the season and couldn’t make it into the Championship-4, is delighted with his teammate’s result.

Bell asserted that he was super proud of Briscoe and Co., especially his entire crew, including James Small as his crew chief and others. Now, the championship finale is up next for the #19 driver, and he will certainly hope to win his coveted maiden title.
