1)
Kyle Busch (Previous position: 3
rd) - A
second win in a row moves this driver up to the number one spot. He is
super hot right now.
2) Dale Earnhardt Jr. (Previous position: 2th) - With his top twenty place finish
at Chicagoland he stays second place in my rankings. He has been solid as of
late keeping second place in the points.
3) Jimmie Johnson (Previous position: 5th)
- Finishing second at Chicagoland helps Jimmie move up two spots in the
standings. He really had a quality shot at the win for this race.
4) Jeff Gordon (Previous position: 4th) -
A top ten finish keeps him fourth place in my rankings. He has stayed
around sixth place in the Sprint Cup standings for a while which is good.
5) Carl Edwards (Previous position: 1st) -
Edwards smashes down to fifth place with his 32nd place finish at
Chicagoland. He even had the lead for a while. To me third through fifth
place this week is very tightly bunched.
6) Matt Kenseth (Previous position: 7th) -
Kenseth moves up one spot in the standings with his seventh place finish at
Chicagoland. He also moved up one spot in the Sprint Cup standings as
well.
7) Jeff Burton (Previous position: 6th) - Burton
moves only down one spot this week with a 19th place finish at
Chicagoland. He rebounded nicely from his first sub fifteen place finish
from last week, but other drivers are hotter than him right now, in my opinion.
8) Kevin Harvick (Previous position: 10th) -
Harvick squeezes onto the list in last place. Had a solid 12th
place finish at Daytona, but just fell right out the chase though, only being 2
points out of the final spot in the chase.
9) Martin Truex Jr. (Previous position: 8th)
- Truex Jr. moves down another spot this week. He did not have as good a
finish as Kevin Harvick did, but was solid, and his major penalty really hurt
his chances to making the chase.
10) Clint Bowyer (Previous position: 9th) -
Bowyer moves down one spot in my ranking with his 22nd place finish
at Chicagoland. He also moved down four spots in the Sprint Cup standings
as well which is not good at all.
