Jimmie Johnson has the lead with less than 20 laps to go, while Jeff Gordon is back in 10th. As of now, Gordon is 76 points behind, and needs something big to happen in the homestretch to not need a miracle at Homestead.

Unfortunately, it looks like that’s going to be the case, as Johnson’s running away with the race, while Gordon is trying to do what he has been all race long, and for the last few races - battle. If he could somehow gain a couple of spots before it’s over, that would be a plus, but with Johnson on the verge of wrapping up his fourth straight win, things aren’t looking good for the #24 right now, as we’re inside ten laps.
