Sunday morning, 16 drivers will wake up to prepare for the Chase for the Sprint Cup. Four of them will have learned of their success the night before.
Until completion of Saturday night's race at Richmond, the full field remains unknown. Just a bit more suspense to play up.
Chris Buescher must stay in the top 30 in points to qualify for the Chase, which begins Sept. 18 at Chicagoland. He has a race win, and he enters the Federated Auto Parts 400 with an 11-point edge on David Ragan.
Three drivers will be watched closely at Richmond and must avoid early elimination from the race.
