NASCAR Cup Series

Commenting on Jimmie Johnson’s unprecedented fifth NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Championship, Daytona International Speedway President Joie Chitwood III said:

KEVIN HARVICK, NO. 29 SHELL/PENNZOIL CHEVROLET – FINISHED 3RD IN RACE AND 3RD IN FINAL POINT STANDINGS: POST RACE PRESS CONFERENCE TRANSCRIPT:

Team Chevy driver Jimmie Johnson is the 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion. Johnson, driver of the No. 48 Lowe’s Chevrolet, overcame a 15-point deficit in the season’s final race to win his fifth consecutive driver’s title.

Carl Edwards captured his 18th career NASCAR Sprint Cup Series win with today’s victory.

Kasey Kahne (seventh) was the highest-finishing Toyota driver in Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS) race at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

BRAD KESELOWSKI (NO. 12 Penske Racing Dodge Charger) Finished 13th “We came up just a bit short today, but it wasn’t from lack of effort. It was up and down, but we got a solid 13th out of it."

Jimmie Johnson and his No. 48 Hendrick Motorsports team have made history by capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship title for a record fifth year in a row.

Hendrick Motorsports now is NASCAR's all-time leader in NASCAR Sprint Cup owner championships with 10 after Jimmie Johnson and the No. 48 Lowe's Chevrolet team earned their fifth consecutive series title Sunday at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

There were many who said that Matt Kenseth should not have been in the 2010 Chase because he wouldn't be a factor. However, barring trouble on Sunday, he's going to finish in the top five.

KEVIN HARVICK, NO. 29 SHELL-PENNZOIL CHEVROLET: LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE GOING TO PACK IT IN EARLY "Well, it's just a couple of minutes (before practice is over) and we ran several laps there. We're really happy with our car. It should be a fun day tomorrow."
