The upcoming Richmond race decides the final playoff spots as top point contenders without wins chase a breakthrough. Aric Almirola Kasey Kahne Greg Biffle Kyle Larson and Austin Dillon eye victories while Clint Bowyer risks the Chase and Michael Waltrip Racing may fold. Pit crew speed could tilt outcomes as Keselowski led laps at Darlington but finished second after Edwards benefited from a faster stop.
Clint Bowyer is picked as winner with Hamlin Gordon Harvick and McMurray in the top five. Cole Whitt is noted as the first out, Tony Stewart as a dark horse, and Bowyer could break through to make the Chase.
