In fact, among this week’s Top 10, only Brad Keselowski (fourth place in New Hampshire) and Kyle Busch (second place) made up any ground on Johnson. Both men still have a long way to go in the standings, however, though Keselowski should be pleased with jumping four spots up the leaderboard.
Kasey Kahne also made a strong move, jumping two spots up to No. 10 overall with an 11th-place finish over the weekend. Tony Stewart and Kurt Busch dropped out of the top ten after finishing 26th and 31st, respectively.
