Matt Kenseth’s third-place run at Dover moved him one point behind Cup series leader and Roush Fenway Racing teammate Greg Biffle, but the RFR drivers are also looking over their shoulders.
With Johnson winning at Darlington and Dover, and Kasey Kahne victorious at Charlotte, Hendrick Motorsports drivers have won the last three points races as the series reaches the halfway point to the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup.
“I feel good about our position,” Kenseth said. “Obviously, any time during the year, you want to be as high as you can in the points. If we make the Chase, they rank (the starting positions) by wins, so that is what you look at right now.
“Certainly we have some work to do. I don’t think anyone could run with the 48 (Johnson) and 24 (Jeff Gordon) today. It seemed to me that they were in a league of their own — and we have some work to do.”
