Almost a quarter of the way through the season and with the NASCAR universe heading into a weekend off, something does seem a little off. Jimmie Johnson and Matt Kenseth remain winless.
The last time neither Johnson nor Kenseth posted a win in the first eight races of a season was in 2001. At this point last year both drivers already had two wins. Overall, 15 of Johnson’s 66 wins have come in the first eight races, while 12 of Kenseth’s 31 wins have. Both drivers have wins at Richmond (Johnson – three, Kenseth – one), the site of the next race.
