Take notes.

First time Junyer's team has made a risky move on strategy and they win.

Perhaps going 4 tires and fuel every single caution doesn't work out so well since Harvick hasn't won a race since Daytona.

I saw he was 4th and then Harvick and Berrier chickened out of a top-5 finish to pit and ended up 15th, losing 2 spots in points.

I know Harvick won 5 races back in 2006 and a Daytona 500 with him, but Berrier and Harvick aren't too good at making calls when they have a poor-performing racecar. Making the Chase doesn't matter if you don't win any races.

If you don't make the Chase you can't win the Championship, period.
You don't have to win a race to win the Championship. Granted it helps but its not a requirement.
So once again...

But when everybody else is winning 3, 4 races, finishing in the top 5 every week and winning races on risky pit strategy, you know it's hard to see what's going on. Harvick hasn't had a top five finish in months. Yet, everytime they have the chance to pull something off on pit strategy, instead of trying to chance it (which it wouldn't hurt at this point), they stop and pit.

I remember Kevin Harvick winning a lot of races on pit strategy, mainly that Chicagoland race several years back.

Andy, Berrier must be taking crew chief lessons from Zippy when it comes to taking 4 tires.

Todd and Zippy are attending that ESPN Crew Chief School with Rusty Wallace and Andy Petree.

"Four tires are your friend."

"You've got to take 4."

"I would never bet against four fresh tires man."

"He's got them four fresh tires and he's got that baby tuned up."
