Posted by Wayne G. Barber This weekend marks the final Sprint Cup Series race in the 12-driver Contender Round before the Chase field dwindles to eight. Here are the scenarios for clinching a spot in the Eliminator Round this Sunday at Talladega. Regardless of the finish of any other drivers;
Back-to-back wins at Charlotte Motor Speedway and Kansas Speedway gave #22-Joey Logano automatic admission into the Eliminator Round.
#11-Denny Hamlin needs to finish 14th with no laps led, or 15th with at least one lap led, or 16th and lead the most laps.#41-Kurt Busch needs to finish 8th with no laps led, or 9th with at least one lap led, or 10th and lead the most laps.
#19-Carl Edwards needs to finish 7th with no laps led, or 8th with at least one lap led, or 9th and lead the most laps.
#4-Kevin Harvick needs to finish 3rd with no laps led, or 4th with a lap led.
#24-Jeff Gordon and #2-Brad Keselowski need to finish 2nd with no laps led, or 3rd with at least one lap led, or 4th and lead the most laps.
#78-Martin Truex Jr. needs to finish 2nd with no laps led or 3rd with the most laps led.
#18-Kyle Busch, #31-Ryan Newman, #88-Dale Earnhardt Jr. and #20-Matt Kenseth only control their own destinies with a victory.
