Chad Knaus. Hendrick would do it since Jimmie won't win the championship this time.

BLOW IT UP!
Joonyer has not come close to earning his $30 Million annual salary. Cut your losses, Rick. Fire him now!
David Reutimann could have done better with the resources at HMS!

What he doesn't make in Winnings he sure as hell makes up with merch $ and sponsorship $.

Changes are coming #88 team? new #42 crew chief? #88 crew chief Steve Letarte says teams expect to reevaluate rosters after every season. "I'd be really surprised if we had the same guys that we started this season with," Letarte said Saturday. "You can never be good enough." There could be more changes than usual at Hendrick Motorsports after this season, particularly with the addition of Kasey Kahne and his support staff, led by crew chief Kenny Francis. Kahne and Francis have scored 10 wins since getting together for the 2005 season finale at Homestead-Miami. Francis is expected to bring along several of his existing crew men from Red Bull Racing. The addition of the Kahne-Frances partnership will change the nucleus of the #5 Chevy currently led by Lance McGrew. Chris Heroy, who was the team engineer and led Dale Earnhardt Jr. to two top-five finishes as a crew chief in the Nationwide Series this year, is rumored to be leaving Hendrick Motorsports to be crew chief for Juan Pablo Montoya and the #42 crew.(FoxSports)(11-13-2011)
Prolly time for a driver change if they have any aspirations of seeing Victory Lane

.......Yes? I mean, it IS a business after all, even though Jr. is not winning races, he is making a killing in merchandising sales.

in the interest of equal time
While the 88 could only muster a seventh place ranking this year,they are moving steadily up in the rankings.Some of the noteworthy drivers left in their dust were Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin, Jeff Gordon and Clint Bowyer.I guess it's onward and upward for the 88 team right?

The 88 is critical to Hendrick: It brings in money to help support his other teams so they have a shot at winning.

Really ?? guess he should fire all his drivers then.
look at the points Jr is going more than likely finish higher than the other Hendrick cars,
i think Jr and his crew chief are just fine together. i really am not that big a Jr fan but some of you folks f**kin kill me with your stupidity

Not a hater. I just think that Joonyer is an under-achiever.

Why should he race like he's hungry for a victory? He's making millions off of merchandising and off of the Earnhardt name.
