Fox NASCAR has featured commentators Mike Joy, Larry McReynolds and Darrell Waltrip from the start in 2001, Current Hollywood Hotel personnel include Chris Myers, Jeff Hammond and Michael Waltrip. Matt Yocum, Jamie Little and Chris Neville currently serve as pit reporters, as did Dick Berggren and the late Steve Byrnes in previous years. Fox also has a "rules analyst," which is ESPN carry-over Andy Petree, this year. This is the team that Gordon will be a part of starting next year.
