We have a very interesting development in the Fantasy Chase.
There are 10 spots open for the final round, but only two have been clinched so far. Two people picked Jimmie Johnson at Martinsville and no one picked Carl Edwards at Texas.
So where does that leave us? It could go one of two ways.
First, Kevin Harvick could win at Phoenix. A whopping 20 of 26 people picked Harvick to win this weekend, and 18 of them aren’t locked into the championship race yet. So that could really make things interesting for Homestead.
Second, anyone but Harvick could win — and that means there would be at least half the final round spots available on points. I did NOT expect that when I came up with this year’s format (I thought Homestead would all be filled by winners from the third round), so that would be kind of wild.
Here’s how things stand as of now:
