CONCORD, N.C. - A special race calls for a special paint scheme, with a special cause.
William Byron will fly the Valvoline/Blood Cancer United colors on his No. 24 Chevrolet this weekend at the Charlotte ROVAL, a home race for the Charlotte, North Carolina, native and the finale of the NASCAR Cup Series Round of 12. The scheme was designed by pediatric cancer patients at Levine Children's Hospital and was unveiled in a ceremony at the facility earlier in September.
As for the rest of the Hendrick Motorsports stable, Chase Elliott, fresh off a win at Kansas Speedway, is back in his green UniFirst livery in the No. 9 Chevy. Kyle Larson returns with the No. 5 HendrickCars.com colors and Alex Bowman is behind the wheel of the No. 48 Ally Chevrolet.
Larson enters the race 54 points above the cutline and Byron is also in good shape, 40 points clear with the postseason field being whittled from 12 to 8 by Sunday's end.
Here's how all four cars will look when they hit the track this weekend:
