His fourth win of the season will mean at least a tie for the lead heading into the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship after next week’s race at Richmond. Hamlin held off Jeff Gordon on a green, white, checkered finish to win for the second week in a row and at the same time putting a real dent in Gordon’s hopes of making the field for Chase.

The top-three drivers in the points standings -- Greg Biffle, Jimmie Johnson and Dale Earnhardt Jr. -- have already clinched a spot in the field. Matt Kenseth will likely join them. All he needs to do is finish 40th or better this Sunday night at Atlanta.
