Going into Richmond, 14 drivers have clinched a spot in this years Chase. Who do you think will clinch the last two spots. There have been 13 winners and Matt Kenseth is far enough ahead in points to guarantee himself a spot.
As for a new winner, the only possibility I see is Matt Kenseth, which would be irrelevant since he is already clinched. Newman and Biffle are currently 15th and 16th, with Bowyer and Larson 17th and 18th. The four of them are the only ones in the top 30 who have a chance to get in the chase by points, all the rest would have to win, and I just don't see that happening. Tony Stewart might be an exception, but he didn't win all season before the unfortunate incident, and I just don't see him winning Saturday . . . which is a shame. Stewart is a great champion.
I think it will Newman easily finishing high enough to give him a chase spot and Biffle will hang on by his fingernails.
It should be exciting.
