RICHMOND, VA. (May 3) - - It was an uphill climb for Jeff Gordon during the Crown Royal 400 at Richmond International Raceway. He started dead last after the team needed to change the engine starter before the race. With traffic at the outset, he fell a lap down by lap 45. But he rallied back in fine fashion and posted a 9th place finish. While Gordon was not a factor for the lead during the night, he passed more cars than any other driver on the track. What looked like a runaway victory for Denny Hamlin turned late in the event when a flat tire sent Hamlin to pit road. He had led 381 of the 382 laps up to that point. Dale Earnhardt Jr inherited the top spot but was wrecked by Kyle Busch just 10 laps from the finish. Clint Bowyer scooted past Busch when he checked up for Earnhardt Jr's spin. Bowyer held off Busch in a final two-lap sprint to win his second career race. Gordon's 9th place effort was his first top-10 finish since Martinsville. He moved up to 13th in the points standings, just 6 points out of the final qualifying spot for the chase for the championship.
