Matt Kenseth held off Mark Martin and Marcos Ambrose to take the checkered flag in the series' last race, the FedEx 400 at Dover International Speedway, on May 15.
Kyle Busch and Brian Vickers rounded out the Top 5 at Dover, while Clint Bowyer, Carl Edwards, Martin Truex Jr., Jimmie Johnson, and Kevin Harvick also picked up Top-10 results at that event.

Kyle Busch, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Harvick, Ryan Newman, Bowyer, Kurt Busch, and Tony Stewart make up the rest of the Top 10 in the current standings.
