Keselowski Climb Continues
In only nine races, Brad Keselowski has moved from 23rd in points to his current position of third. A few reasons for his startling launch up the points standings…
– Of course, the reset helped. After Richmond, all Chase drivers had their points total reset to 2,000 points, with the top 10 drivers tacking on three bonus points for each win during the regular season.
– Still, over the last nine races, his stats look like this: two wins, six top fives and eight top 10s.
– Keselowski’s worst finish was a still-solid 12th at Richmond.

Keselowski’s third-place points position is the best of his career.
