With five races remaining in the regular season, 10 drivers have clinched a spot in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, assuming each start the remaining races.
The 10 clinchers: Brad Keselowski, Kyle Busch, Carl Edwards, Jimmie Johnson, Matt Kenseth, Kevin Harvick, Kurt Busch, Joey Logano, Martin Truex Jr. and Denny Hamlin.
Everyone who has a win this season is in -- except for Tony Stewart and Chris Buescher, both of whom have yet to clinch a top-30 spot.
A number of drivers who currently have no wins can clinch this weekend, but only if they win at Watkins Glen International and leave the race with at least a 165-point lead over Stewart and Buescher. There's also the potential for the points leader to be a guaranteed winner after race No. 26 at Richmond, the final regular-season race. If that's the case, the below drivers would only need to have a 165-point lead over Buescher.
Possible to clinch at Watkins Glen:
Austin Dillon (0 Wins, 549 Points, +268 Points Ahead of 31st)
Ryan Newman (0 Wins, 537 Points, +256 Points Ahead of 31st)
Chase Elliott (0 Wins, 533 Points, +252 Points Ahead of 31st)
Jamie McMurray (0 Wins, 517 Points, +236 Points Ahead of 31st)
Kyle Larson (0 Wins, 508 Points, +227 Points Ahead of 31st)
Kasey Kahne (0 Wins, 488 Points, +207 Points Ahead of 31st)
Trevor Bayne (0 Wins, 480 Points, +199 Points Ahead of 31st)
Ryan Blaney (0 Wins, 480 Points, +199 Points Ahead of 31st)
