Six-time NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Jimmie Johnson broke a 24-race winless streak by winning Sunday’s Bank of America 500 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
Johnson now advances to the Round of 8 for the first time since the revision of the format for the Chase for the Sprint Cup in 2014.
Matt Kenseth finished second, followed by three non-Chase drivers that rounded out the top-five: Kasey Kahne, Ryan Newman and Kyle Larson.
