Jeff Gordon will drive the Hendrick Motorsports No. 88 car this weekend and again at Martinsville next month while Alex Bowman will do the six other races this year as Earnhardt remains sidelined.Not having raced since July 9, Earnhardt has battled vision and balance issues that doctors believe were caused by a concussion in a June 12 crash at Michigan International Speedway.

He also stood -- unnoticed -- in the fourth row at a Lord Huron concert.The only thing that triggers the symptoms is going somewhere Im unfamiliar with, going somewhere Ive never been, where it is busy, a lot of people talking, a lot of movement, a lot of visual stimulation, Earnhardt said.The next step in the rehab, Earnhardt said, was to do exercises that would cause anyone to lose balance. He has to stand on a foam block, close his eyes and turn his head doing the exercises.Were almost back to being where Im a normal functioning person with no issues, he said. But to become that guy that I need to be inside the car, weve got to really train my senses to be really perfect.Im going to be doing a lot of stuff thats really hard for anybody to do to try to continue to improve the balance and my response time and how quick Im reacting to things and so forth.
