David Scott’s Power 16
1. Kevin Harvick (first last week): Probably a little tense around the shop this week after Harvick called out crew for pit-road problems at Darlington.
2. Brad Keselowski (2): Had one of the stronger cars at Darlington (led 47 laps), but finished ninth.
3. Joey Logano (3): Continues to show strength as the Chase draws near, will be a title favorite.
4. Denny Hamlin (5): Like Logano, has come on at the right time of the season.
5. Carl Edwards (4): Was a disappointing 19th at Darlington after winning in 2015.
6. Martin Truex Jr. (9): Add Darlington victory to Coca-Cola 600 triumph, makes for an excellent season so far.
7. Kyle Busch (8): Wasn’t a factor at Darlington (although he led one lap), finished 11th.
8. Kyle Larson (12): He’ll be a not-so dark horse in the Chase.
9. Tony Stewart (6): Took out Brian Scott with a questionable move at Darlington.
10. Kurt Busch (7): Wreck at Darlington led to 34th-place finish.
11. Chase Elliott (13); 12. Matt Kenseth (14); 13. Austin Dillon (15); 14. Jimmie Johnson (11); 15. Jamie McMurray (10); Chris Buescher (16).
