For the 14th consecutive year, Dale Earnhardt Jr. has been named NASCAR's Most Popular Driver.

After missing half of the 2016 Premier Series season due to concussion-like symptoms, Earnhardt accepted the prestigious award during Friday night's Sprint Cup Series Awards banquet at the Wynn Las Vegas.

Earnhardt also had some other exciting news, as fiancé Amy Reimann announced the couple are tying the knot on New Year's Eve.
