Tony Stewart 2015 Review
By Richard Tix
Season Grade: F
Season Preview: "Even after a down year in 2014, I don't think expectations have faltered much for Tony Stewart. In 2015 I think we all still believe he should be a title contender. He is 43 years old, but we have seen many drivers his age and older compete at a high level, so if they can do it why can't Smoke? I expect him to bounce back in 2015 and win 3-4 races while making a strong run to the Chase. Once in the Chase it will be interesting because he wasn't part of it last year, but I am sure Tony took some notes."
Season Review: Well, I hit it on the head with expectations entering the season, they were high. However, I think that is the last time his expectations are so high as they will be down heading into 2016, and 2016 is his last season.
Most fans would like to see one last strong effort, but he has looked out of it. He finished 28th in points after only posting three top 10's all year. Yes, three. No wins, no top 5's, just three top 10's.
He will take his 48 career wins into 2016 and finally try and get to the magic number of 50.
