2017 will be Dale Earnhardt Jr's last.
The 14 time most popular driver announced Tuesday that he will hang up his helmet at the end of the season.
Not a big surprise considering his previous year.
The big question is where the sport will go from here. With three huge names retiring in three straight seasons, the sport could be in trouble of losing some fans.
No matter the impact after he's gone, the impact Jr had while he was racing is unparalleled.
Jr was loved by many around the sport. He held fans after his father's death and shouldered the load of NASCAR for 18 seasons.
He will be missed.
