Carl Edwards, Mark Martin and Matt Kenseth filled out the top five spots. Jeff Burton, Greg Biffle, Jamie McMurray, Denny Hamlin and Reed Sorenson finished in spots 6-10.

In the points race, Johnson has 1,861 to 1,75 for Kenseth.

One of the headlines of the race was the second injury this weekend to Tony Stewart. He suffered a right arm injury when his car slammed into the outside wall in Turn 1 on Lap 35.

It was the same arm he hurt Saturday night while running in the Carquest Auto Parts 300, a Busch Series race, also run at the Loews Motor Speedway.
