Jimmie Johnson is one of the most accomplished NASCAR drivers of all time, tying the record for most Cup Series championships with seven. His championships came in a modern, highly competitive era between 2006 and 2016. Known for his calm demeanor, technical precision, and incredible consistency, Johnson led the No. 48 team to five consecutive championships from 2006 to 2010—a feat never before achieved. Although he shares the all-time championship record with Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt, this question singles out one of those other drivers. Johnson’s impact on the sport is enormous, and he helped redefine what long-term success looks like in NASCAR. But he’s not the specific answer we’re calling for here.
