The NASCAR Weekly Podcast will be on my channel tonight at 8 ET. Can’t wait to see you there! Before then I’ll ask how do you think Ross Chastain will perform next year?
I don’t think he’ll get a win, however because of his previous cup experience I think hes gonna get in the playoffs
I'll tune into the podcast about 15 minutes late, because of my evening online college class tonight
I have reasonably low expectations. My expectations are for him to just make to playoffs and be consistent (mirror image of his 2019 truck and 2020 xfinity season).
Not expecting Larson good, but I think he will do well
2 Wins
8 Top 5s
16 Top 10s
12th in Points
I love people who have stories like this. I can quickly relate to them and I always support people who came from nothing.
And the story just got better
Here after his first cup series win!
I worked for a radio station in central FL that interviewed Chastain bi-weekly for a talk show I produced, back when he drove the XFINITY #4. He's an incredible guy and extremely professional. Glad to see him in a full-time Cup ride.
Represent Florida and 239, Ross😁🍉💪🏼🏁
LETS GO ROSS! WOOOOO!!!!! My Home State/County driver is finally in a big team in Cup!
386
I'm a big fan of Chastain and I expect him to at least be on the playoff bubble in 2021. All those starts with Premium should help ease his transition into cup
Well look at him now‼️‼️
Everyone in the comments: “ 🍉🖋”
ESPN needs to do a 30-for-30 on Ross Chastain and have it titled:
Melons to Motorsports
I hope Ross Chastain does very well in the 42 next year! Ever since Dale jr. Retired, I have not had a driver that I've been partial to, but I think I will choose to follow Ross! Also, I hope he contends for an Xfinity championship this year!
Chastain: *Big silly season news here I com-*
*Jordan/Hamlin/Bubba enters the chat*
Chastain: 😑
Herman Tilke and COTA: **Licks Lips**
I'm a Chastain and Bubba fan so I was beyond hyped.
@@digitalcamaro9708 you kidding? I spent the entire season thinking about who I should root for after Jimmie retires. I think I've found them, Chase, Bubba, & Chastain(that's it for now).
@@H.D.K_8 Dibby is pretty cool too he has a nice personality and can drive.
@@digitalcamaro9708 Yep him too. That makes 4
Honestly I think he will actually get a win or 2. With how crazy 2020 has been, and with all the kinds of news coming out, we could be in for another crazy 2021 season as well.
I hope Ross opens a merch Shop where you can buy plush watermelons. I NEEEEEEEEED ONE!!!!!
Your in luck. melonmanbrand.com has you covered.
I love that this video really asked the question . Knowing now what you couldn't know then . Ross has definitely solidified his place Amongst the greatest drivers in the Cup series. Yes he had some turmoil with his run ins but that's his hunger to be great. Go Ross
This video aged beautifully
Huge congrats to Chastain, a great personality who has earned this ride and then some.
Yup well deserved going to be fun to see him run in good equipment next year in cup
Chastain is the first Nascar driver I ever meet and he's such a great guy 🍉
Chastain🍉 really is a Fascinating Guy to see progress in the Sport and the way he's succeeded.
And P.S. you have yo add the Watermelon Emoji to his name because that's how it works.
I’ve been a big fan of Chastain for a few years now. I’m glad I got to see him get a win at WWTR last year. I’m happy I’ll finally have a favorite driver in the Cup series again too.
I think Chastain is really gonna be something. Like the next McMurray or something.
That's not very flattering.
chastain will be linked to that red number 4 JDM car for a long time
I got this homepage 3 days after his first win. I actually thought this was a new upload
Judging by how crazy he went during the 500 this year, I fear for the rest of the field
Carnation I can see the memes coming next year
Jesse Harvey touch
Hey now give him a chance. Don't hate.
Good, let them fear the melon man!
You mean making a bold move for the top two positions, with two laps to go, and getting blocked to the apron? All while laying back and being patient for about 195 laps? Sounds like every other restrictor plate race.
My prediction for chastain in 2021, 1 win and makes it to the round of 12. Chastain is amazing, i noticed his talent and became a fan of his in July 2015 at the Iowa race where he raced his way into the top 10 in that underfunded car and got in a argument with ryan reed. I’ve been following him ever since and he has done nothing but impress me. I can’t wait to see his cup series stent with ganassi, i think he’s a future cup champion. This is a major gain for Chevrolet.
Ross is going to murder innocent watermelons when he wins.
WATERMELON LIVES MATTER 2020
🍉🍉
🍉🏁🏆
Ross is prolly one of the most dedicated hard working nascar drivers, driving all 3 series for a couple seasons is tough. He deserves this 42 ride and wish him the best of luck
I met Ross chastain. He gave me free suit tickets and signed my hat as well. Great driver!
And it gets better
Now I can have the 10 car in Xfinity
you deserve a better ride then the 10 team, maybe a shot at a ride with SHR or KBM
No, you can stay out of the way in the Trucks.
This aged extremely well, seeing the kickass year he's been having
Just won his first cup race :)
Mr Berg I think you need to do an update on this video especially with the renewed interest in Ross Chastain, Thanks for your great content!
Oh indeed, monday was Christmas in September in terms of nascar news
Watching in 2022 Ross and Trackhouse BLEW UP!
I definitely see him making the playoffs in 2021. A win I am not sure about, because we do not know if the current 42 crew chief will be the one for Ross next season, and Kurt Busch has not won yet currently this season. Maybe if there is a green/white/checker and Chastain is on the front row he can get a win.
My predictions for him in 2021
0 wins
4 Top 5’s
12 Top 10’s
Finishes 17th in Points
Nah bruh More Like this
1 win
Top 5s: 18
Top 10: 26
Finished 10
@@darthbone8487 hell no, that's way better than even larsons stats besides wins
1 win
9 top 5s
13 top 10s
SuperTornadoGun and we don’t talk about Larson after what he did I get that he apologized but that word should have never been in his vocabulary at all
@@Mcnibbus Ok that's legit just erasing history.
Man I know he's old but I just feel like with practice and qualifying Kenseth could've really got some stuff done in the #42 car this year. Sucks that he's going away for good. Dude was literally my childhood hero and it was so neat when he came back. But at the same time, I've been a Chastain for about 4, 5 years now.
Dude really is humble af
I sponsored his Premium Motorsports car last year at Darlington when I was 16. Been a huge fan ever since
He didn’t drive for Viva Motorsports, he drove for SS Greenlight Racing who were points renting
He had a pretty impressive cup debut as well, gave Premium Motorsports a top 20 finish at Dover.
Chastain is my favorite driver since 2018. I think that great things in Cup with Ganassi.
Big congratulations to Ross Chastain getting a top ride in cup I'm so happy for him he will be great
People really hated on this guy when he got the ride, he’s going to prove a lot of people wrong.
He won't destroy equipment that's for sure. If he makes the "playoffs" next year he will have over exceeded expectations and also how can you hate the melon smash. We no longer get backflips so we at least get something unique.
Ross Chastain 2022 champion
Ross is one of the biggest talents I've seen EVER.
He is also a really nice guy, at Pocono he was giving out happy meals to kids with merchandise inside the box * along with food*
I hope he's consistently in the top15, with a couple runs in the top 10 and/or 5
Chastain be like: 🍉🖊
Goes from driving an underfunded truck team into xfinity ganassi and then jd and then an underfunded cup car and a competitive truck ride and Kaulig into the 42 in chip ganassi racing.
Yeah this is definitely the Alex Bowman story but longer and sounds special
I think he can teeter with the playoff bubble. Making the playoffs would be signs of success
1:37, *That driving though*
This video may be one year early
#10 Ross Chastain for 2020 Xfinity Series Champion! Those 🍉 won't wait any longer to be smashed, he will win and be in the Final 4. Consistency will pay off for Kaulig Racing!
Wins he will earn: 3
Who is here after that crazy wall ride move at Martinsville
Remind me to ONLY buy Ross Chastain Watermelons at my local grocery store.
10-4
He won Talladega today
I’m so happy for Ross
Him and Briscoe are my favorite younger drivers Harvick still my 1
Honestly I've always thought he was overrated by the fan base, but there's no denying his talent, considering how he started out.
Im happy bubba and chastain are both getting the rides they deserve
I like Ross Chastain honestly.
Watermelon decals on the car. That's badass
i think he'll fall just short of playoffs in 2021, but I do think he'll be a threat to win in 2022
Boy, this video aged well. Elite driver
If McDonald's was to use ross Chastain in an add for a watermelon shake I would so go buy one
I believe Ross Chastain will do good for Chip Ganassii in 2021. I would also be surprised if Nutrien Ag Solutions comes on board with Chastain.
I met him 3 times at Dover and he is very nice
Raced with Ross last night in iRacing @ Charlotte
Hopefully Chastain will make the playoffs next year
I loved it when harvick tried to wreck him by running him into the wall and Ross spun him out
The first race I ever watched fully was the Vegas race that Ross dominated. Not the best race, but it was a feel good story. 🍉🍉🍉🍉
Ross Chastain is one of the biggest underdogs in the 2010s, I hope he gets success in Cup. Watermelons forever!
If Larson Never Pissed Off Black People in April He Would Still Drive The #42 with Chastain in Xfinity for another Year
The “Flying Farmer” is going to cup 🍉
Another reason I like Harvick. He came from nothing, too, he was just noticed quickly.
The only thing that kept the #10 & the #9 is the last lap of several races, either one are smart drivers, Ross cost his self the points that would have got him was at Daytona instead of just finishing second instead wreck him teammates, so set back Ross and see who wins the 2020 championship and eat you some WATERMELON.
Imma try to upload the Hypothetical Situation compilation tonight.
0:38 MY EYES
How'bout the BALLS of Chastain Wrecking Harvick. 100% Justified
Harvick recognized upcoming talent... wants to suppress it
Chastain inspired me to grow Watermelons this summer and they turned out good.
I think ross do ok
How is seeing Ross Chastain going to cup he is affiliated with Ganasi
I met him
Well he has 2 wins here in 2022 with the 1 car so hes definitely doing better than the crap 77 car in 2021
I guess Ganassi finally felt bad for shitting him out of a ride a few years ago because of a con deal
I'll say Ross makes the it to the Round of 8, with 1 win, 7 top 5s, and 17 top 10s
Watermelons in chat!! 🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉
Id say chastain makes the playoffs and goes out in the first round
Sorry to tell you will be in a series next year where bumping is no longer allowed.
I’m a huge fan of the Melon Man
Ross Chastain= Alex Bowman
Personally I just think he will be a field filler in cup Ganassi is not a top tier ride in cup like it was in Busch.

Wish him luck🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉
What flavour of pen did he use
Watermelon 🍉

Ross the boss. Lets smash some melons.
In the 42 we have a W A T E R M E L O N
