Happy Hour: Stop Us If You’ve Heard This Before, But...
A pair of Hendrick Motorsports cars led the final Sprint Cup practice Saturday afternoon at Atlanta Motor Speedway, with Mark Martin (185.524 mph) and Dale Earnhardt Jr. (185.517) representing the power from Hendrick’s 5/88 shop.
Martin Truex Jr. of Michael Waltrip Racing was third, followed by the surprising Paul Menard and home-state favorite David Ragan.
Jeff Burton, Marcos Ambrose, Brian Vickers, Clint Bowyer and Kurt Busch rounded out the top 10.
Not everyone was very happy after the Happy Hour session.
Greg Biffle hit the wall and had to go to a backup, and backmarker Boris Said made contact with Kyle Busch (18th), slightly damaging his car.
Among other notable drivers, Jimmie Johnson was 16th, Denny Hamlin was 18th, Tony Stewart was 20th and Jeff Gordon was 25th.
Things don’t look good for the Sprint Cup points leader: Kevin Harvick was a disappointing 40th in final practice.
The Kobalt Tools 500 is expected to begin shortly after 1 p.m. EST tomorrow.
