“It’s amazing how EA continues to innovate and make the game more fun for gamers and the drivers year after year,” said Gordon, driver of the number 24 Dupont, Chevrolet.
Jimmie Johnson, driver of the number 48 Lowes, Chevrolet, expanded, “The addition of the team racing really changes the game in an amazing way. It’s not just about you, the driver. Now, you are challenged to manage a whole team, using your on-track relationships with other drivers and especially your teammates to bring home the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series Championship and build a racing dynasty.”
Jeff Gordon, the four-time NASCAR Cup Series Champion, won rookie of the year honors in 1993 and the first of his four titles in 1995. Gordon also took top honors in ’97, ’98 and 2001.
Jimmie Johnson spent two full seasons in the Busch Series before stepping up into NASCAR Cup Series racing in 2002, where he sat on the pole in the season-opening Daytona 500 and finished fifth in the points. Johnson finished runner-up in the points standings in 2003 and 2004.
