Latest Driver and Team News & Rumors


2009 Predicted Points Finish: #5

Kenseth is the third Roush driver I'm listing in the top five for the season preview. He finished 11th in points, but this team played catch-up all season after a slow start. During the Chase, they ran strong in several races but did not get the finishes they deserved. The 17 will contend in 2009, and will have a chance to win several more races than drivers who finished above him in the points. He will be looking to break back into the win column in a hurry after being shut out in 2008.
