2. Joey Logano, No. 22 Ford, Team Penske. Took the lead on Lap 1 and was one of the strongest cars all day, but for the sixth time in the past seven races, he finished in the top five without winning. | MORE: Finishing second disappointing for Logano
3. Kevin Harvick, No. 4 Chevrolet, Stewart-Haas Racing. Harvick battled a loose race car on exit and needed to conserve fuel late in the race but managed yet another top-three finish. | RELATED: Missed opportunity for Harvick
4. Martin Truex Jr., No. 78 Chevrolet, Furniture Row Racing. Truex told his team early in the race that he was “still tight in, getting looser off.” Whatever changes they made worked, as Truex was in contention for the win as laps ticked off. | MORE: Updated Chase Grid standings

7. Matt Kenseth, No. 20 Toyota, Joe Gibbs Racing. Kenseth drew the radio ire of teammate and race winner Kyle Busch, but the team shop should be a friendly environment with both drivers enjoying solid Indy runs. | RELATED: Kenseth on high drag package: ‘It’s terrible’

11. Ryan Newman, No. 31 Chevrolet, Richard Childress Racing. Newman started from the rear because of a window violation during qualifying, but made the most of it and nearly notched a top 10.
12. Ryan Blaney, No. 21 Ford, Wood Brothers Racing. Sunday was Blaney’s best finish since a top five in May at Talladega.
13. Carl Edwards, No. 19 Toyota, Joe Gibbs Racing. The pole winner was “loose off” early in the race and fell from third to 15th on a crucial late restart.

19. Greg Biffle, No. 16 Ford, Roush Fenway Racing. Biffle was the highest-finishing Roush Fenway Racing driver – and just barely made the top 20.

23. AJ Allmendinger, No. 47 Chevrolet, JTG Daugherty Racing. Allmendinger pitted on Lap 16, thinking he had a tire going down. The tire ended up being fine, but he never quite recovered and finished 23rd.

27. Danica Patrick, No. 10 Chevrolet, Stewart-Haas Racing. Patrick didn’t enjoy Indy on Sunday, even complaining about an unnamed fellow driver “He held me up in (Turn) 4! This (expletive) sucks (expletive)!”
28. Tony Stewart, No. 14 Chevrolet, Stewart-Haas Racing. Stewart called his car “Evil in traffic, you cannot believe it” and then lost tons of track position when he chose not to pit ahead of a Lap 124 restart.
29. David Gilliland, No. 38 Ford, Front Row Motorsports. After the race, Gilliland tweeted “We got our … car better at the end. Not what we wanted but not a bad points day!”
30. Michael Annett, No. 46 Chevrolet, HScott Motorsports. After Sunday, Annett hasn’t finished better than 30th since May at Kansas.
31. Michael McDowell, No. 95 Ford, Leavine Family Racing. Not a great finish for McDowell, but he had good perspective, tweeting “We always want more but my guys fixed a lot of damage today and we salvaged a decent day.”

34. Brett Moffitt, No. 34 Ford, Front Row Motorsports. On the late restarts, Moffit was told “it’s going to get wild, so be on your toes.” It was, but not for him, as he was in the back of the pack.

37. Justin Allgaier, No. 51 Chevrolet, HScott Motorsports. On Lap 16, Allgaier told his team, “I’m either plowing the center or wrecking loose off.” Things only got worse from there.
38. Aric Almirola, No. 43 Ford, Richard Petty Motorsports. Almirola had perhaps the quote of the season – certainly the race – expressing his displeasure for Trevor Bayne by saying, “That little boy better be ready. He’s going to get his ass whooped today.” | WATCH: Almirola and Bayne tangle
39. J.J. Yeley, No. 23 Toyota, BK Racing. Yeley has still finished inside the top 30 just once this season.
40. Trevor Bayne, No. 6 Ford, Roush Fenway Racing. Bayne battled bad setup and rear end vibration all day – and nearly ended up battling Aric Almirola. “Something’s bad wrong,” Bayne said. He was told it was not a good setup and he needed to use track bar to get him looser or tighter. | WATCH: Almirola and Bayne tangle
41. Timmy Hill, No. 98 Ford, Premium Motorsports. Hill got little seat time in his backup car before the race and it showed.
