Matt Kenseth dominates at Richmond as Chase field is set

Sept. 12, 2015 By Reid Spencer NASCAR Wire Service RICHMOND, Va. – Joe Gibbs Racing brought guns to a knife fight on Saturday night at Richmond International Raceway. But JGR’s Matt Kenseth did his teammates one better — he brought a howitzer. Leading 352 of 400 laps in a race he owned from the outset, Kenseth pulled away from Kyle Busch after a restart with 18 laps left and won the Federated Auto Parts 400 by .951 seconds over his teammate.

With 25 of 26 regular-season races in the books, the only current Chase driver in any real danger of falling out is 16th-place Clint Bowyer.

Breaking Down the Chase Picture Before Richmond

By Jerry Bonkowski It’s come down to this: win and you’re in. Anything less and you’re done. That’s the scenario for Saturday night at Richmond International Raceway, the final qualifying race for the Chase for the Sprint Cup. Fourteen drivers are left with one last chance to make the Chase: Aric Almirola, Kasey Kahne, Greg Biffle, Kyle Larson, Austin Dillon, AJ Allmendinger, Casey Mears, Danica Patrick, Tony Stewart, David Ragan, Sam Hornish Jr., Trevor Bayne, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Justin Allgaier. Given the hard-luck season most of them have had in 2015, it’s hard to envision them winning in the season’s most…
