Jeff Gordon New Hampshire Pit Stop

Jeff Gordon finished a solid 7th at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and built a small cushion over the Chase cutoff with one race to go before the next round. Gordon started his NASCAR record-setting 789th consecutive race, which broke Ricky Rudd’s Iron Man record.

Gordon started 10th and battled handling issues at the outset. He slipped to 12th by lap 15. The first caution came on lap 37 for Aric Almirola’s cut tire and wall contact. After chassis adjustments, Gordon restarted in 14th place on lap 42. He moved up to 11th on lap 47, just before a caution for Landon Cassill’s power steering leak. Gordon ran 12th when the caution waved on lap 60 for Tony Stewart’s cut tire. Gordon came to pit road for a 2-tire change and restarted in 25th place. He gained spots after the restart on drivers who hadn’t pitted and ran in 18th place on lap 80. Gordon advanced to 15th by the time the next caution waved on lap 120 for Alex Bowman’s wall impact. Pit stops followed with Gordon restarting in 18th place. At the halfway point, Gordon ran in 14th place.

A caution for Kyle Busch’s wall contact brought out the caution on lap 160. Gordon came to pit road in 13th place and restarted in 11th. However, he slipped back to 17th after the restart when he was caught in the middle line. He regrouped over the next 10 laps and ran in 13th place on lap 175. Gordon advanced to 11th before a debris caution on lap 190. Pit stops followed with Gordon losing 4 spots and restarting 15th. He gained a spot when Jimmie Johnson pitted with a flat tire. On lap 205. the day’s hardest crash occurred when Danica Patrick, following contact from Ryan Newman, backed into the wall and collected David Ragan. The melee allowed Gordon to move into 12th place. After the restart, Gordon slipped to 13th before a caution for Brett Moffitt’s spin. Gordon came to pit road and restarted in 14th place with 86 to go. He held 14th until a caution for Justin Allagaier’s cut tire with 63 laps to go. Gordon came to pit road and restarted in 20th place. With 50 to go, Gordon moved up to 16th place.

As drivers ran out of fuel, Gordon picked up two more spots in the closing laps to finish in 7th place. It was his best finish at Loudon since 2012.

JG’s comments
“It was tough to pass today, and this place is always tough to pass. We started further off than we expected, but I have to give everybody on this team a lot of credit. They worked hard and made some big adjustments and brought the car to life. We just need some long green flag runs. We had a couple of restarts that didn’t go well, and some pit stops where the sequence wasn’t great. But there at the end, that last one helped us. We had a long green flag run. We had a decent restart and were able to pick off cars. Of course, a couple of cars ran out of fuel as well. It was a good way to close out the day.”

ON DOVER:
“You know Kevin Harvick’s going to be on a tear, and maybe Kyle Busch. Those guys have had some unfortunate circumstances, but they’re so fast and capable of winning next week at Dover. We’ve got to go there and be solid. We won there last year. I’d love to be able to go back and repeat that. We’re going to fight hard. We have a little bit of a [points] cushion, but not enough of a cushion where we can run easy.”

It wasn’t a work of art through the first 26 races, but Jeff Gordon qualified for the NASCAR Chase for the 11th time in the 12-year history of NASCAR’s championship playoff. Gordon’s 7th place effort at Richmond clinched his spot in the Chase.

Gordon started 23rd and was unable to make headway through the opening laps. The first caution came on lap 38 for Martin Truex’s wall contact. Following pit stops, Gordon made his way into the top-20 on lap 50. His forward advancement continued as he took 17th from Ryan Newman on lap 58. Gordon entered the top-15 on lap 70, and took 14th from David Ragan on lap 77. A debris caution brought pit stops just before lap 100. Gordon restarted in 13th place on lap 102. The third caution came on lap 112 for Michael Annett’s crash. Gordon pitted for tires and restarted in 13th. He steadily gained spots and moved into the top-10 on lap 150 with a move around Joey Logano. He took 9th from Kurt Busch, and then passed Carl Edwards for 8th prior to the halfway point.

Gordon took 7th from Kyle Larson on lap 202, but slipped back to 8th when Aric Almirola passed on lap 209. A debris caution on lap 211 brought the lead lap cars to pit road. Gordon lost a spot in the pits and restarted 9th on lap 217. After briefly dropping to 10th, he regrouped to pass Carl Edwards and Kyle Larson for positions to run 8th on lap 230. A debris caution brought the leaders to pit road on lap 290. He held 8th through the round of pit stops, but moved to 6th place after Brad Keselowski and Jamie McMurray were penalized for speeding on pit road. Gordon entered the top-5 for the first time with 93 laps to go with a move around Jimmie Johnson. However, he fell out of the top-5 when Dale Earnhardt Jr took the spot with 89 to go. Gordon dropped to 7th when Almirola passed with 55 to go. With 26 to go, NASCAR threw a caution for debris. Pit stops followed with Gordon holding the 7th position. He crossed the finish line in 7th to clinch a spot in the NASCAR Chase.

JG’s comments
“It was a really solid night, so I’m proud of all the guys on the team. The first run I was a little nervous, we were hovering around 21st. We made a slight adjustment and started going to the front. I don’t know if we were a top-5 car, but we were definitely a top-10 car. Finished 7th, I’m just so excited we finally had a solid night on pit road, on the racetrack with the car, communication — everything was just really solid. So, that gives us something to be excited about over the next 10 races. These guys have been working so hard. I know everybody works hard, but they haven’t been getting the rewards of that hard work. So it’s nice to be in the Chase and take that breath and reset and see what we can do over the next 10.

ON HENDRICK MOTORSPORTS:
“We’re behind, we know that. (Joe Gibbs Racing) is unbelievable. But there’s a lot of ways to make it to Homestead. There’s a lot that can happen. We’re working as hard as anybody to try to see what we can do better, learn from our competitors, and try to catch up. We’re definitely playing catch up. I think Dale Jr is probably the best in our stable right now. He proved that again tonight. But we work hard together to try to improve. If we continue to do that, we’ll make gains.”

ON THE CHASE:
“I’m excited about it. That’s a lot of pressure in this final season to make the Chase, so I’m glad we finally got that done.”

Jeff Gordon’s final career start at Darlington Raceway seemed the like perfect turnaround to his summer malaise. However, a 16th place finish — which was not indicative of his running position through the balance of the event — was his fourth consecutive finish outside the top-15. Barring a driver outside the top-16 in Chase points winning at Richmond, Gordon will qualify for the NASCAR Chase for the 11th time in the 12-year history of the 10-race playoff.

Gordon started 5th and held the spot in the opening laps. The first caution came on lap 7 for a crash involving Brett Moffitt, Cole Whitt and Chase Elliott. On the restart, Gordon dropped to 7th before regrouping to take 6th from Matt Kenseth on lap 22. He re-entered the top-5 with a move around Joey Logano on lap 26. The next caution came on lap 44 for Ryan Newman’s spin. The leaders came to pit road with Gordon exiting in 6th place. He fell to 8th on the restart as Kyle Larson and Carl Edwards went by. He took 7th from Larson on lap 58 prior to a debris caution. Most drivers came to pit road with Gordon opting for tires and restarted in 7th place. He slipped to 8th on lap 88 when Martin Truex passed. A caution for Michael Annett’s spin on lap 109 brought the caution. Pit stops ensued with Gordon exiting in 8th. He took 7th from Kyle Larson prior to a caution for Mike Bliss’ wall contact on lap 120. Gordon came to pit road for tires and restarted in 14th place after several drivers stayed out. He dropped to 17th prior to a caution on lap 134 for Jimmie Johnson’s spin. On the restart, Gordon used fresher tires to his advantage and moved to 12th on lap 140. He re-entered the top-10 on lap 145, and took 9th from Greg Biffle one lap later.

Gordon’s forward advancement continued as he took 8th from Larson on lap 148. However, his progress stalled as Denny Hamlin took a spot from Gordon on lap 160. The next caution came on lap 163 for Trevor Bayne’s cut tire. Pit stops followed with Gordon restarting in 8th place. He used the outside line to his advantage and moved to 6th on lap 170. He passed Denny Hamlin to take over 5th on lap 176. A debris caution slowed the field on lap 189, which brought pit stops. Gordon restarted in 7th on lap 194. He struggled on the inside and dropped to 11th on lap 196 before taking 10th from David Ragan. The next caution came on lap 198 for Ricky Stenhouse’s crash. Gordon moved to 9th on the restart before a caution for Greg Biffle’s spin on lap 208. Gordon ran 8th when the next caution waved on lap 229 for Chase Elliott’s solo crash. Pit stops ensued and Gordon restarted in 9th place. He ran 8th when Trevor Bayne spun to bring out a caution on lap 246. Gordon stayed on the track and restarted in 5th place.

Gordon moved to 4th after the restart, but was no match for Kevin Harvick on fresher tires. He dropped to 6th after JeKurt Busch took a spot. The next caution came on lap 265 for David Ragan’s spin into the frontstretch wall. Gordon came to pit road for tires and restarted 9th. He advanced to 8th prior to the next caution for Ragan’s second crash. Gordon stayed out and restarted in 5th. He held the spot until Kyle Larson passed on lap 300. A debris caution slowed the field on lap 301. Gordon took tires and restarted in 11th place. He slipped to 14th after the restart. The next caution came on lap 307 when Martin Truex hit Kurt Busch in turn 4. Gordon worked through race traffic and ran in 11th place with 35 to go. He slipped to 12th when Kurt Busch went by with 25 to go. Jeb Burton’s spin with 12 laps to go brought out a caution.

The leaders came to pit road with Gordon losing 4 spots and restarting in 16th place. He crossed the line in 16th for his 4th consecutive finish outside the top-15 — the first time that’s occurred since April-May 2012.

Jeff Gordon Watkins Glen In Car Audio

For the second time in the last 3 weeks, Jeff Gordon posted a sub-40th place finish. Gordon lost 4 laps at Watkins Glen after a brake fluid line issue on lap 25. Gordon dropped to 14th in the NASCAR Chase standings with 4 races remaining before NASCAR’s playoff begins. The 41st place finish was his worst career finish on a road course. In addition, it’s the first time since 2008 that Gordon posted 2 sub-40th place finishes in the same season.

Gordon started 5th at the Cheez-It 355 at the Glen and dropped to 9th by the end of lap 4. He took 8th from Tony Stewart on lap 12, while complaining of handling issues. Gordon came to pit road for a green flag stop on lap 24. Greg Biffle’s cut tire brought out the caution on lap 26. Gordon returned to pit road to diagnose a brake problem on the #24 car. The crew worked on multiple stops to fix an issue with leaking brake fluid. Gordon sat on pit road and lost multiple laps as the line was fixed. A debris caution on lap 31 slowed the field, while Gordon went 4 laps down on pit road. A crash after a restart on lap 49 eliminated Kasey Kahne, which allowed Gordon to gain a spot on the track. He ran in 42nd place on lap 54. Tony Stewart’s broken gear provided Gordon was another spot to gain and he moved to 41st on lap 60 where he finished the event.

JG’s comments
“It’s disappointing. We can’t afford to have these finishes if we’re going to make the Chase. Just when you think you get something that goes your way, and something like this happens. We keep fighting and digging and trying to get the finishes we need to get solidly in there. We need to improve performance-wise, but I think our performance is not bad. Right now it’s the unknown. The concerns of freak things happening like what happened at Indy (and) what happened here. Those are things out of your control. We’re all about the things you can control. From that standpoint, we’re trying to improve the performance of the car slightly. We’re not far off, though.”

Jeff Gordon Windows 10 400 at Pocono 2015

After running mid-pack for most of the race at Pocono Raceway, Jeff Gordon pulled off a 3rd place finish after fuel strategy worked to the advantage of the #24 team. A green flag run to the finish following the final round of stops allowed Gordon to move up from 15th to 3rd in the final 3 laps as drivers pitted for fuel. Gordon tied Mark Martin for the most top-5 finishes (20) at Pocono.

Gordon started 9th and moved up to 7th by the end of the first lap. The first caution waved on lap 5 after Kasey Kahne spun off turn 3 and drilled the pit wall. After a 30-minute red flag for repairs to the pit wall, racing resumed on lap 8. Gordon took 6th from Tony Stewart on lap 13 and ran there when the competition caution waved on lap 15. Gordon stayed out and restarted in 4th place. He took 3rd from Austin Dillon prior to the next caution on lap 21 for Kevin Harvick’s blown engine. The next caution came on lap 28 after Ricky Stenhouse drilled the turn 1 wall. Gordon came to pit road for tires and fuel. Some drivers stayed on the track who had previously pitted, which sent Gordon to 23rd place for the restart. He re-entered the top-20 on lap 40 as drivers ahead began pitting under green. Gordon advanced as high as 2nd place during the pit sequence before coming to pit road on lap 59. The next caution came on lap 62 for a loose tire on pit road. Gordon restarted in 12th place on lap 65. However, on the restart, Gordon was shoved out of the groove and had to dramatically slow to avoid Kurt Busch’s spin in turn 1. He fell to 16th place for the restart on lap 71. Gordon ran 16th at the halfway point on lap 80.

Gordon moved up to 5th place during a green flag pit stop sequence. A caution for Alex Kennedy’s crash on lap 91 brought out the caution. Gordon pitted for tires and fuel and restarted in 16th place. He struggled on the restart and dropped to 21st place before rallying back to 19th on lap 100. He stayed out to lead a lap during a green flag pit sequence and came to pit road with 33 laps to go. As the laps wound down, Gordon moved up to 17th with 13 laps to go, and took 16th from Ryan Newman with 11 to go. With 4 to go, he moved into the top-15 with a move around Greg Biffle. As drivers ran out of fuel, Gordon moved into the top-5 and came across the line in 3rd place. It was his best finish since Bristol in April (span of 13 races). Gordon remains 12th in the NASCAR Chase standings with 5 races to go until the Chase begins.

JG’s comments
“It would be a long, long list if we talked to a bunch of people in the grandstands and myself, and everybody on pit road and probably people watching at home to find out who was more surprised [with the finish]. That was crazy. I’m so proud of (crew chief) Alan Gustafson and everybody on this team. We fought through a lot. We’ve been fighting hard. We just haven’t been getting the results. Today they stuck with a strategy and it played out. It wasn’t looking good at times, but boy, it sure looked good when we crossed the finish line and got the checkered flag.

Jeff-Gordon-Brickyard-400-2015-1

Jeff Gordon’s final race in his adopted home state of Indiana was a 42nd place finish in the Brickyard 400. Gordon was running 15th when Clint Bowyer spun ahead of him. He swerved with Kasey Kahne on his outside and lost control. The car spun and made heavy contact with the left front and rear. Repairs in the garage were needed and Gordon finished more than 50 laps down.

Gordon started 19th and gained three spots in the opening laps to run 16th on lap 5. He advanced to 15th on lap 10, but slipped back to 16th after Matt Kenseth passed one lap later. He came to pit road for a green flag stop on lap 30, which also included chassis adjustments. Gordon cycled through in 15th place. The first caution waved on lap 44 for debris. Pit stops followed with Gordon restarting in 15th place. However, Gordon swerved to avoid Clint Bowyer’s spin on lap 51 and spun into the wall on the short chute between turns 3 and 4. The car was heavily damaged and Gordon lost 3 laps on pit road while repairs were made. After being unable to maintain minimum speed, Gordon brought the damaged car to the garage for more extensive repairs on lap 71.

Gordon returned to the race and was 54 laps down. He gained a spot because of attrition and finished in 42nd place. It was his worst finish since August 2008 when he finished 42nd at Michigan. He remains 12th in the NASCAR Chase standings.

JG’s comments
“I was underneath Kasey Kahne. We were just racing for position. I saw Clint Bowyer get sideways. I don’t know what caused it. Kasey and I were trying to check up to avoid it. I don’t know if he got loose, or we just both got loose together. Then I just lost control and got in the wall. We’re never going to give up. We got back out there as fast as we could, but the splitter is too torn up on the front. It was really creating lift and the car didn’t have any front downforce so it was pushing really bad.”

JG’s comments
“Honestly, that’s the kind of effort that this team has been putting in a lot lately. We haven’t been coming to the track in the position that we really feel like we could be, like we were last year. We’ve got some catch-up to do there; but my gosh, one thing we’re not lacking is determination and just the ability to overcome adversity. I’m really proud of that. The car was actually pretty good. When they dropped the green, we were good for about the first half of the race. But the second half of the race, we just couldn’t keep up with the track conditions. I’m not sure exactly what went on, but we were just kind of holding on there at the end. But it was still a nice top 10.”

Jeff Gordon will conclude his NASCAR career with victories on 24 different tracks. The one track missing from his trophy collection is Kentucky Speedway. Gordon posted a 7th place finish in the Quaker State 400 — it was his fifth straight top-10 at Kentucky in 5 races there. At the front of the field, Kyle Busch claimed his second victory in the last 3 races as he continues his remarkable comeback from an early-season broken leg and foot.

Gordon started 3rd and moved to the runner-up spot within one lap. The first caution waved on lap 18 for a crash involving Josh Wise. On the restart, Gordon dropped to 5th. He regrouped to take 4th from Kyle Larson on lap 25. The lead lap cars came to pit road after a competition caution on lap 30. Gordon exited pit road in 5th place after taking 2 tires. He slipped back on the restart and ran 9th on lap 40. Gordon continued battling handling issues and ran 12th on lap 50. He held the spot until a debris caution brought the leaders to pit road on lap 81. Gordon restarted in 11th place on lap 85. He re-entered the top-10 on lap 90, and ran in 9th place on lap 95. He passed Larson to take 8th on lap 98 just prior to a caution for Kurt Busch’s spin. Gordon came to pit road for two tires and restarted in 9th place. He moved to 8th on lap 107 with a move around Larson. Gordon slipped to 9th on lap 120 prior to a caution for JJ Yeley’s wall contact. Pit stops followed with Gordon restarting in 17th place because of pit crew contact with Jamie McMurray’s car. At the halfway point, Gordon ran in 13th place.

A debris caution slowed the field on lap 136. Gordon stayed out and restarted in 11th place. He fell to 17th on lap 143 when the caution waved for Jeb Burton’s crash. Gordon came to pit road for 4 tires and restarted in 30th place. He advanced to 25th before the next caution on lap 153. Gordon stayed on the track and restarted in 9th place where he essentially regained the lost track position from the previous pit stop. He quickly moved to 7th on lap 158 and closed on Jimmie Johnson for a position. He took 6th from Johnson on lap 162. However, Brad Keselowski went by on lap 170 to send Gordon back to 7th. A debris caution slowed the field on lap 186. Pit stops followed and Gordon exited in 9th place. He moved to 7th after the restart on lap 192. Keselowski sent him back to 8th on lap 204. The next caution waved on lap 207 for Danica Patrick’s spin. Gordon exited pit road in 12th place. With four tires, he took spots from drivers on two tires and moved to 8th with 52 laps to go. He took 7th from Trevor Bayne with 50 to go prior to a caution for Kyle Larson’s wall contact. With 40 to go, Gordon moved to 6th after taking spots from Keselowski and Kevin Harvick. Gordon held the spot until Keselowski passed with 7 to go.

JG’s comments
“As usual in Kentucky it is never easy. The team did a really good job. We had to fight through a few handling issues and some restarts and pit road and a bunch of things, but there at the end everything kind of came together. We got the car working really well, got a couple of good restarts and a good pit stop. It was a solid evening. It wasn’t a winning evening, but I’m still real proud of the effort.”

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE CHANGES IN THE PACKAGE?
“It’s hard to gauge at this place. It is such a challenging racetrack already. Basically the cars just drove really bad right from the beginning and just always drove bad around all the cars. It didn’t change a whole lot when you are around other cars. I don’t know. I think we have to give it a try somewhere… we’ve got to get the right tires on it. This is not the right tire. It is still way too hard. It doesn’t have near enough grip at the beginning of a run. It doesn’t really fall off. The only way you can make a low downforce package work is to have the proper tire on there. I’m glad we tried it, did a little more work, I’m looking forward to trying it again. I’m looking forward to trying what we are going to have at Indy too.”
