Chase Elliott, NASCAR’s poster boy and reigning champion, has sparked a frenzy of conversation with his candid remarks about the intriguing term “Chase-Sexuals.” This term, coined by devoted fans who pledge unwavering loyalty to Elliott regardless of his on-track performance, has garnered attention ever since a fan boldly claimed the title during a podcast discussion. Surprisingly, it was fellow NASCAR competitor and friend Bubba Wallace who introduced Elliott to this unique label, igniting a wave of intrigue.

In a recent interview with seasoned NASCAR journalists Jeff Gluck and Jordan Bianchi, Elliott revealed, “The only reason I know what this is, or I’ve heard of it, is because Bubba has said that to me before. And I don’t know the meaning behind it, like some sort of a fan club?… Okay, that’s kind of what I thought.” His words reflect a blend of amusement and curiosity about the passionate support his fans exhibit. While he admits that the phenomenon isn’t “on [his] radar,” Elliott expresses a sense of pride in having such dedicated supporters.

But the excitement doesn’t stop there! Elliott’s 2025 NASCAR Cup Series journey has seen a remarkable revival, highlighted by a triumphant victory at his home track in Atlanta—an emotional win that ended a staggering 44-race win drought. The season kicked off with a bang as he dominated the Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium, swiftly reestablishing himself as a serious contender. Consistency has been Elliott’s mantra this season, with top-20 finishes across the board and standout performances at iconic venues like Sonoma, Talladega, and Martinsville.

As the race for the playoffs heats up, Chase Elliott remains focused on the road ahead. Recently, he participated in the Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway, where Ryan Blaney’s nail-biting victory inadvertently helped his Hendrick Motorsports teammate, Alex Bowman, secure the final playoff spot based purely on points. Elliott finished in 10th place, feeling the sting of losing precious playoff points to Blaney and Kyle Larson. Nevertheless, he expressed satisfaction in Bowman’s success, stating, “Yeah, we got Alex (Bowman) in, so that’s good… we’ll go to Darlington and try to build on the race we had there in the spring.”

The atmosphere in the Hendrick Motorsports camp post-race was charged with relief and quiet celebration, as Bowman navigated a rollercoaster of emotions following an early crash that left him anxiously spectating while his playoff fate hung in the balance.

With the Southern 500 at Darlington looming on the horizon, Chase Elliott is poised to charge forward, fueled by the fervor of his “Chase-Sexuals” and the unwavering support of his team. As the competition intensifies, fans can expect nothing less than a thrilling showdown in the coming races!
