No changes at the top this week, but there's quite a tweak at the bottom of our Top 10.
We've put the Boys in Research to the task, but they've yet to find another occasion when we've included a part-time driver on our list. You might suspect it would take something special to make that happen.
How's this for special: Two wins in the past three starts, one on a street course and the other on a giant, unrestricted oval. That's how Corey Heim earned his spot this week, and while he might not stay, given the scarcity of his starts the rest of the season (just four of 'em), I'm gonna go on a limb and say he'll return someday in the future.
Meanwhile, Joey Logano gained yet another spot here while Ryan Blaney lost one and Tyler Reddick lost two more. Let's go to the grid ...
Seven wins as a car owner this year but now 0-for-18 as a driver at the Brickyard.
Up front nearly every week nowadays, and now on our front row here.
It’s too easy to lose a million bucks, but he had to work hard to lose it to Todd Gilliland.
Keeps piling up points while another win seems destined for him in August.
"Mr. Bridesmaid" now has a 6-pack of runner-up finishes this season.
As he learned at Indy, you can’t win if you can’t pass.
One of three with 15 top-10s this year.
One top-10 in last 11 starts and dangerously close to getting bumped from our little gathering here.
Seems to have found his eighth cylinder.
Hey, why not? Who else has won two of the last three races?
