RELATED: See the full Chase Grid
Here's a breakdown of the Chase Grid and bubble picture following Sunday's Crown Royal Presents the Combat Wounded Coalition 400 at the Brickyard.
LOCKED IN
Matt Kenseth and Jimmie Johnson locked up spots in the 16-driver Chase Grid with their performances at Indianapolis. The two join Brad Keselowski , Carl Edwards and Kyle Busch as those who have clinched. All have multiple wins and can't fall out of the top 30 in the standings (a qualifier for making the postseason).
WIN, BASICALLY IN
The following drivers have won at least once this season and have all but claimed one of the remaining 11 spots: Kevin Harvick (1), Kurt Busch (1), Denny Hamlin (1), Joey Logano (1), Martin Truex Jr. (1) and Tony Stewart (1).
That accounts for 11 drivers in the 16-driver postseason field, leaving five spots up for grabs via points. Here's how that picture looks post-Indianapolis.
