CONCORD, N.C. -- Just eight races remain until the start of the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, and as it stands, all four Hendrick Motorsports drivers would make the cut.
NASCAR provided an up-to-date look at the current 16-driver Chase Grid, which you can see above. The lineup is far from finalized, but after last weekend's race at Kentucky Speedway, Jimmie Johnson, with a series-high four wins, holds the top seed.
Dale Earnhardt Jr., who has found Victory Lane twice, is slated in third place.
Jeff Gordon and Kasey Kahne are lined up 12th and 13th, respectively. Neither driver has earned a victory to this point in the season, but their point totals would earn them spots in NASCAR's playoffs. They currently hold the second- and third-highest point totals for drivers without a win.
Races at New Hampshire, Indianapolis, Pocono, Watkins Glen, Michigan, Bristol, Darlington and Richmond await before the start of the Chase at Chicagoland Speedway.
