In NASCAR there are always drivers that fans will see as the ultimate favorites for the championship. Sometimes we have the clear cut best guys year in and year out whereas in some years a guy will come out of nowhere. NASCAR is no different in this respect. But in my opinion there one driver who is a championship level talent that is severely underrated, and that is none other than Joe Gibbs Racing driver Christopher Bell. Today we are going to look at Bell so far and see why he may be the most underrated elite driver in NASCAR…

Chris Bell just continues to get better, he got so many wins in the playoffs and even recovered from being the innocent victim in the Bubba Wallace and Kyle Larson wreck at Vegas to win at Martinsville. The guy is good, and he may take the mantle at JGR and hopefully things will continue to shift over to Chris's side in the garage area. He should probably be looked for as JGR's star driver now.

I've been high on Bell since his truck days. I always say the best talent starts on dirt and he's no exception. I think in '20 he outran his equipment, and last year showed how good he can be. And i think the reason he's so good on road courses and short tracks is because of his dirt background, the cars slide around a lot on road courses and the braking points on short tracks are part of his background. Besides Truex, he's my favorite driver in Cup. Heck of a driver and heck of a nice guy. Today is his 28th birthday and he still looks like he's 15.

I think he's already easily the top JGR driver, and he'll be out there competing for championships for a long time. I don't know why I didn't think much of him prior to this year, maybe it's because I had trouble taking him seriously because he looks like he's 12, I don't know. But he impressed me even before the walk-offs in the playoffs.

I would have to agree, with Hamlin and Truex possibly seeing the end of the road pretty soon, and with KB gone, it's only time that the torch gets passed down to Christopher Bell, because he was the only guy in 2022 that maintained consistency especially in the Playoffs, at JGR. And, honestly at the beginning of the year, my expectations for him were not that high for him, but boy did he prove me wrong! Expect him to be a legitimate threat for the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series championship....

I've said for years that Bell is one of the best drivers in 2022. He's consistent at the right times. However, things beyond his control always overshadow his wins (see Ross Chastain at Martinsville), and he's easily going to be in contention to be a multi-time champion.

What makes Christopher Bell underrated is that he’s not controversial. Tyler Reddick, same thing. These guys are too nice not selfish enough and they don’t throw temper tantrums or act like brats when they don’t get their way. That’s what makes Kyle Busch so awesome and I’m not even that big of a fan of Kyle Busch I would much rather Reddick and Bell be the brat pack.
