Longtime Hendrick Motorsports crew chief Chad Knaus and wife Brooke Knaus are expecting a baby boy in August, Brooke announced via Twitter on Monday night. Chad Knaus, a seven-time champion as crew chief for Jimmie Johnson and the No. 48 Chevrolet team, and Brooke married in August 2015. This will be the couple's first child. Given Knaus' well-earned reputation for preparedness in the garage, we imagine Brooke's hospital bag is already packed. Congrats from all of us at NASCAR.com.
