7 drivers who will likely win to make NASCAR playoffs

As of right now, nine drivers have all but clinched spots in the season-ending Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series playoffs.

Jimmie Johnson leads all drivers with three victories in the first 14 races of 2017.

Brad Keselowski and Martin Truex Jr. have two wins apiece.

Kurt Busch, Ryan Newman, Kyle Larson, Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Austin Dillon and Ryan Blaney have all won once.

Those nine are good to go. Joey Logano has a victory but it was encumbered, which means it doesn’t count towards the playoffs because his Team Penske Ford failed inspection after he won at Richmond.
