Alex Bowman misses the NASCAR Cup Series race at Phoenix Raceway this Sunday due to ongoing vertigo. Anthony Alfredo steps in as the driver of the Hendrick Motorsports No. 48 car. Bowman underwent two days of medical evaluations and drove laps in a streetcar but remains unfit for racing. Hendrick Motorsports President Jeff Andrews emphasizes the importance of prioritizing Bowman's health. This absence is particularly tough for Bowman, an Arizona native in a contract year, currently 45 points off the playoff cut. He previously missed races due to a concussion and a broken back. Alfredo, familiar with Hendrick setups, aims to translate his simulator experience to the track. With 43 career Cup starts, he hopes to make a strong impression.
