2023 was a frustrating NASCAR season for Alex Bowman and his Hendrick Motorsports team. Despite leading the Cup Series point standings in early April, Bowman’s season took a turn for the worse when he broke his back in a sprint car accident. He was sidelined for several races and struggled to regain his momentum upon his return. Bowman finished 20th in the championship standings, the lowest among Hendrick Motorsports drivers. He had his worst year statistically, with the fewest top 10 finishes and worst average finish of his career with the team. Despite the challenges, Bowman has learned to not let bad weekends bring him down and has grown from the experience.
