Weekly Review and Power Rankings
Bristol Motor Speedway
By Richard Tix
This week the review and power rankings are going to be short and sweet. It's a busy time at Behind the Wall. All weekend I had Fantasy Football drafts, Tuesday I have a Twins game, and then Thursday I leave for Michigan International Speedway. So, I do not have much to say about Bristol except rain once again ruined our plans and we had to put it off until Sunday. That really sucks for fans that showed up and couldn't make Sunday. Now, I am already crossing my fingers we stay dry this weekend!
Pit Road Power Rankings Week 23 (Week 22)
- Kevin Harvick (LW-4)- Big win for a team coming off a rough finish last week. Finish: 1st
- Joey Logano (LW-3)- Stayed out of major trouble late in the race to still lock in another top 10. Finish: 10th
- Kyle Busch (LW-1)- Kyle was dominate early until a late wreck ruined his whole day. Not much you can do when it piles up at Bristol. Finish: 39th
- Denny Hamlin (LW-6)- Hamlin has really been making a move lately. He now has five straight top 10's. Finish: 3rd
- Brad Keselowski (LW-2)- A trend that will follow below, BK was in a wreck late at Bristol. Finish: 33rd
- Carl Edwards (LW-11)- Edwards is starting to turn it around and step one was staying out of most of the trouble Sunday. Finish: 6th
- Tony Stewart (LW-6)- It was a cool celebration to see Smoke as an owner out there with race winner Kevin Harvick. Finish: 30th
- Matt Kenseth (LW-7)- Every week at least one JGR car has to have some rough luck, this time it was Kyle and Matt. Finish: 37th
- Chase Elliott (LW-12)- It was only a top 15, but it was much needed for Chase on his Chase hopes. He led a few laps on Sunday as well. Finish: 15th
- Kyle Larson (LW-9)- Back to back tough finishes for the No. 42. He went from Chase outsider to "man he needs a win to make the Chase" fast. Finish: 24th
- Jimmie Johnson (LW-NR)- JJ gets back on track, finally. It's been awhile since he has graced the top 12. Finsih: 7th
- Kurt Busch (LW-8)- Somehow Kurt is 3rd in overall points, but it doesn't feel like it. It's been a rollercoaster season and Bristol was a low. Finish: 38th
Dropped Out: Martin Truex Jr
Just Missed: Austin Dillon and Jamie McMurray
