After a disappointing finish at Chicagoland Speedway, Jeff Gordon needed a solid effort at New Hampshire. Although he led the most laps and seemed to be in position to claim the victory with under 100 laps to go, a mistake on pit road forced Gordon to conserve fuel in the final laps. He finished a solid 4th — after leading 79 laps in the race — and moved from 11th to 5th in the points standings. It was Gordon’s fifth top-6 finish in the last six races.
Gordon started 7th and moved to 4th within four laps. He took 3rd from Brian Vickers on lap 6, but was unable to make significant headway closing on Ryan Newman and Kasey Kahne at the front of the field. As the leaders came upon lapped traffic, Gordon closed in on Kahne’s rear bumper. The handling on the DuPont Chevrolet became tighter later in the run and Gordon maintained 3rd place. He stayed on the track to lead a lap during a cycle of green flag pit stops on lap 64. Gordon took the runner-up spot from Brian Vickers on lap 68. A debris caution slowed the field on lap 86. Pit stops followed with Gordon exiting in 3rd place after taking two tires. He restarted 5th due to Mark Martin and Juan Pablo Montoya staying on the track.
At the 100-lap mark, Gordon ran in 4th place. He took 3rd from Newman on lap 112 and moved to 2nd when Martin pitted on lap 140. Gordon re-took the race lead when Kahne pitted on lap 147. A caution for Landon Cassill’s wall contact brought out the caution on lap 155. After pitting, Gordon restarted on the outside of Kahne on lap 161. He moved ahead of Kahne in turn 1 to take the lead. Matt Kenseth’s spin on lap 173 slowed the field and erased Gordon’s lead. Gordon once again pulled away on the restart and led comfortably at the 200-lap mark. He came to pit road during a cycle of green flag stops just as he ran out of gas on lap 231. Gordon cycled through in 4th place. He took 3rd from Kahne on lap 253 and closed to within 2 seconds of Clint Bowyer for the race lead. However, a problem on the final stop during the gas can exchange forced crew chief Alan Gustafson to ask Gordon to save fuel. He backed off the throttle and dropped 10 seconds off the race lead into 6th place. Gordon moved into the top-5 with 15 laps to go when Kahne pitted. He moved up to 4th when Bowyer ran out of gas.
Road ahead: The series visits Dover Speedway for the second time in 2011. Gordon tested at the track in April, but has failed to contend for a Dover victory in the last few years. He has just one top-10 finish in the last 5 races at Dover. Gordon will be in the Drive To End Hunger car at Dover — the first time in his Cup career that he won’t have the DuPont oval on the hood at the 1-mile track.

Jeff Gordon and the #24 battled through adversity at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and seemed poised for a top-5 finish. However, a flat tire on the final lap doomed their chances as Gordon finished 11th. He led 19 laps during the race, but a battery change at the halfway point put him a lap down. Gordon battled back and was running 4th on the final lap before the tire went down. Due to the battery issues, Gordon cut the cooling system in the car, which resulted in late race cramping in his legs. He battled through race traffic several times during the event, but did not have the finish to show for the superb effort.
Gordon started 7th and dropped a spot in the opening laps. However, as the tire pressures came up, he took positions from Juan Pablo Montoya and Jeff Burton to move up to 6th on lap 8. Gordon moved into the top-5 on lap 29, just before a debris caution slowed the field. Pit stops followed with Gordon departing in 7th place after a two-tire change. He dropped to 9th within a lap of the restart, but regrouped as the run progressed. He moved back into 7th on lap 43 with a pass on Brad Keselowski. Gordon moved into the top-5 on lap 50, and took 4th from Burton on lap 53. Kyle Busch’s cut tire brought a caution period and pit stops. Gordon restarted 16th on lap 65, but was hindered by traffic and dropped to 19th. Gordon patiently made his way back and moved to 12th within 10 laps. He re-entered the top-10 on lap 80 and moved up to 6th when a debris caution slowed the field on lap 99. Gordon opted for 2 tires and restarted in 5th place on lap 105. He lost spots at the outset, but regained the positions on the longer run. On lap 120, he moved into the 4th position with a pass on Kurt Busch. He took 3rd from Burton two laps later, and the runner-up spot from Jimmie Johnson on lap 123. Gordon took the race lead from Kasey Kahne on lap 127. He opened a 3-second lead before a caution on lap 145 for Keselowski’s cut tire. Crew chief Alan Gustafson opted for a four-tire change and Gordon restarted in 10th place.
On the restart, Gordon lost power and dropped to 35th. He switched batteries in the car and regained power. A caution for fluid on the track on lap 160 allowed Gordon to come to pit road and the crew swapped batteries. He lost a lap in the process and restarted 34th on lap 165. A caution for Denny Hamlin’s spin on lap 171 allowed Gordon to get back on the lead lap. He moved to 27th by lap 180 and was up to 24th when Mark Martin spun after cutting a tire. Gordon avoid his teammate’s spin and restarted 15th after staying on the track during the caution period. On lap 200, he took 11th from Kasey Kahne and closed in on the top-10. He passed Kevin Harvick for 10th on lap 204, and advanced to 6th when a debris caution waved on lap 215. Gordon restarted 17th after a tire change and moved to 11th on lap 225. During a caution flag for Brian Vickers’ wreck, Gordon came to pit road for the final time to top off with fuel and restarted 23rd with 70 laps to go. He re-entered the top-15 with 60 to go, just as caution slowed the field for Johnson’s spin. He stayed on the track and restarted 8th with 55 laps to go. He entered the top-5 on lap 249 and moved to 4th with 37 laps to go. With 18 laps to go, Tony Stewart took 4th from Gordon — which essentially ended his hopes for a victory. Gordon moved back into 4th by passing Kurt Busch two laps later. However, the day took its toll as he experienced leg cramping in the late stages due to cutting off in-car equipment to save battery voltage. Gordon came across the line in 11th place.
Road ahead: The series takes a week off before heading to Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the Brickyard 400. Gordon will travel to the Democratic Republic of the Congo after Loudon as part of his work with the Clinton Global Initiative. Gordon will tour a refugee camp to get a firsthand look at the problems impacting the refugees in the Congo.

September 20 – - Jeff Gordon battled to a 6th place finish at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and moved up to 5th in the Chase points standings. Gordon took no chances as the laps wound down, electing to pit for fuel to ensure the finish instead of staying out for track position. After Jeff Burton and Tony Stewart ran out of fuel on the white flag lap, Gordon’s decision proved to be the right one.
Gordon started 17th and moved up to 15th within 5 laps. However, the handling became looser and Gordon dropped back to 19th on lap 17 when Jimmie Johnson and Denny Hamlin passed. He re-assumed the 18th position from Hamlin on lap 20. The first caution waved on lap 26 for Scott Speed’s wreck on the frontstretch. The lead lap cars came to pit road with Gordon dropping to 22nd after a four tire change. Within five laps of the restart, he moved back up to 17th. Lap 39 brought out the caution for a spin involving Marcos Ambrose and Paul Menard. Pit stops followed with Gordon opting for 2 tires which dropped him out of the top-20. On the restart, Gordon moved up to 16th within four laps by taking a spot on the outside of Denny Hamlin. On lap 70 he passed Ryan Newman for the 14th position. Gordon stayed out during a pit stop cycle to lead lap 111 before coming to pit road.
Gordon moved up to 10th before a debris caution at the halfway point. The lead lap cars came to pit road with Gordon exiting in 9th place. He ran in 9th for the balance of the fuel run before taking 8th from Kurt Busch on lap 190. A caution for Mark Martin’s cut tire with 94 laps to go brought the leaders to pit road. Gordon picked up two spots and departed in 5th place. He moved to 4th when Carl Edwards spun Denny Hamlin in turn four with 86 laps to go. Gordon pushed Tony Stewart into the lead on the restart and settled into 3rd behind Stewart and Clint Bowyer. Gordon took the runner-up spot from Bowyer with 80 to go. Two laps later Kurt Busch spun in turn two. That set off a chain reaction of spinning that collected Kyle Busch and Jimmie Johnson. Gordon came to pit road to top off the fuel to ensure he could make it to the finish. He restarted in 8th with 71 laps to go.
Matt Kenseth’s wall contact with 66 to go brought out the caution — which Gordon needed to see to be safe to the end on fuel. Gordon moved up to 4th place for the restart with 63 laps to go. Three laps later, Bowyer took the spot from Gordon. A caution for Joey Logano’s spin with 59 to go slowed the field. On the restart, Dale Earnhardt Jr took 5th. Kevin Harvick and Denny Hamlin passed Gordon for position with 46 laps to go, sending Gordon back to 8th. On the final lap, Gordon picked up two spots after Stewart and Jeff Burton ran out of gas. He finished 6th and moved up three spots in the series standings to 5th. However, his gap to the leader increased from 60 to 75 points

June 28 – - Jimmie Johnson paced the field in both practice sessions on Saturday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. That turned out to be foreboding as Johnson made a late pass on Kurt Busch to win his 52nd career race on the 1-mile oval. Since New Hampshire in the first race in the Chase, make no mistake that Johnson will be the driver to beat — both at Loudon and for the title.
For Jeff Gordon, a solid 4th place finish should serve him well when the series returns to New Hampshire Motor Speedway in mid-September. Gordon started 16th and lost three spots before the tire pressures came up. Gordon then moved back into the 16th position on lap 7. One lap later he took 15th from David Ragan. On lap 14, he passed Paul Menard and Marcos Ambrose to move into the 13th spot. Gordon gained two more spots on lap 18 with passes on Jeff Burton and Brad Keselowski. He entered the top-10 on lap 22 by taking the low line in the corner to pass Joey Logano. Three laps later he took 9th from Sam Hornish. The caution flag waved on lap 35 for debris on the track. Gordon came to pit road for four tires and departed in 12th place due to several drivers opting for two tires. Gordon re-entered the top-10 on lap 40, and took 8th from Joey Logano on lap 43. However, his forward march stalled as Burton took 8th on lap 50. Ten laps later, Mark Martin pulled to the inside on the backstretch and allowed Gordon to move into 7th place. On lap 85, he got a strong run off turn two and took 6th from Kyle Busch. Gordon came in for a green flag pit stop on lap 108 and cycled through in 6th. On lap 121, he took 5th place from Tony Stewart.
At the halfpoint point, Gordon passed Juan Pablo Montoya for the 4th position. Gordon came to pit road for tires under green on lap 179 complaining of a loose handling condition. Following the cycle of stops, Gordon ran in 6th place. On lap 208, he took 5th from Kasey Kahne who was experiencing engine problems. Gordon fell back to 6th on lap 230 when Jimmie Johnson went by. However, he moved back into 5th when Tony Stewart pitted under green on lap 235. The caution waved on lap 236 when Kahne’s engine blew. Gordon came to pit road for tires and departed in 4th place. On lap 248, Montoya slid into Gordon in turn three and pushed him up the track — putting him back to 6th place. Gordon muscled his way around Montoya into 5th on lap 250. Kurt Busch eventually passed to put Gordon back in 6th. With 20 to go, Montoya wrecked in turn three after Reed Sorensen moved up the track. Gordon came to pit road and opted for two tires. He restarted in 4th with 13 to go. Johnson took the race lead from Burton and pulled away, while Gordon fell back to 5th. Two laps later he moved back to 4th when Burton and Kyle Busch spun in turn four to bring out a caution. Gordon moved to 3rd on the restart just before Kurt Busch nudged Johnson out of the lead. Stewart took the 3rd spot from Gordon with 6 to go with a strong move in turn two. With 2 to go, Johnson re-took the lead from Busch en route to the win.

September 20 – - A 15th place effort was not the way that Jeff Gordon wanted to begin the Chase for the Championship. He’ll have to climb out of a 100+ point deficit due to the substandard finish at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
Gordon started 10th and moved to 7th on lap 3 by using the outside line. He took the 6th position from Martin Truex Jr on lap 10, and moved into the top-5 on lap 14. Gordon patiently worked through lapped traffic and took 4th from Denny Hamlin on lap 52. Twelve laps later, he dove to the inside of Kurt Busch on the backstretch and moved to 3rd. The first caution waved on lap 66 for Kasey Kahne’s blown engine. Pit stops ensued with Gordon departing pit road in 5th position after overshooting his stall coming in.
On the restart, Gordon dropped to 7th as the outside line had the momentum, and Jimmie Johnson zoomed past on the inside. Gordon held 7th as the air pressures stabilized, before a debris caution on lap 85. The leaders elected to stay on the track. Gordon faded to 12th within two laps of the restart. On lap 115, he took 11th from Brian Vickers, and re-entered the top-10 on lap 119. Gordon moved up to 9th on lap 125 from Ryan Newman. A debris caution brought the leaders to pit road on lap 135, with Gordon departing in the 8th position. He held 8th on the restart and ran there for 20 laps before Erik Darnell brought out the caution. Gordon opted for fuel only and was the 2nd car off of pit road. He restarted in 9th due to drivers staying on the track. A multi-car incident on lap 169 collected Paul Menard, Elliott Sadler, Michael Waltrip, John Andretti, and Robby Gordon.
Gordon restarted 10th and moved to 9th before Jeff Burton’s spin on lap 176. David Stremme’s wall contact brought the caution and the leaders to pit road with just over 100 laps to go. Gordon opted for right side tires and restarted in 14th place. He struggled with the handling and opted for wholesale changed during the next pit stop on lap 250. He dropped to 18th before a debris caution with 23 laps to go. Gordon opted to come to pit road for fresh tires in the hopes of making a final charge. Gordon restarted 19th with 18 laps to go. He moved up to 15th at the finish. At the front of the field, points leader Mark Martin held off Denny Hamlin and Juan Pablo Montoya to win his 5th race of the season.
