All four Hendrick drivers firmly entrenched in NASCAR Cup Playoffs Round of 12.
In something of a major surprise – major compared to preseason forecasts back in February, before the Daytona 500 – former champion Kevin Harvick and former two-time champion Kyle Busch were eliminated. Harvick, almost certainly in a must-win situation, finished a credible 10th at Bristol, but still fell well below the 12-driver cut line.
Busch needed only a mediocre finish to stay among the top-12, but a late-race engine failure left him 34th at the finish and two agonizing points out of the Round of 12. .“It's unfortunate, but we put ourselves in a little bit of a bind, points-wise, in the first two races,” said Dillon of Richard Childress Racing. “We were doing our job today; we had a great race car and got stage points. It’s just unfortunate we were caught up in it. We’ll go out try to win races and get better.
After getting his first two career victories this year, Reddick was doubly-disappointed at not advancing. “I saw the crash happen and checked up, but I just got run over,” he said. “We had two bad races with bad finishes with two really good race cars, but didn’t capitalize on it and that’s keeping us out.”
Reddick was asked what it was like limping around in a damaged car, hoping to inherit enough spots to maybe squeeze in. “It was terrible,” he said. “It’s out of your control; you can’t really fight to do anything about it. Hoping for others’ misfortunes is no way to race.”
