In 2009, Jamie McMurray took the victory in Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Amp Energy 500 at Talladega Superspeedway, as he made a late pass to win the checker flag, snapping an 86-race winless streak dating to July 2007 at Daytona by hanging on when the racing heated up. Entering this weekend’s race, McMurray was sitting 22nd in the Sprint Cup driver point standings McMurray’s best Cup series finish at Talladega is fifth which he has accomplished three times and in his 14 career Cup series starts at Talladega, McMurray averages a 19.5 starting position and a 20.5 finishing position.

In 2008, Tony Stewart cruised to his second NASCAR championship in four years at the Ford 400, capping an uncharacteristically calm season for the former bad boy. He won races, kept his temper in check and avoided every major incident long enough to cement himself as one of the greatest drivers of his time. Needing only to run a clean race at the Ford 400, he hovered just outside the top 10 and away from any potential danger.

He ended up 15th, winning the title by 35 points over Greg Biffle, and winning his second Ford 400 in a row. Stewart became just the 14th driver in NASCAR history with more than one championship and joined four-time winner Jeff Gordon as the only active full-time drivers with multiple titles.
