Jimmie Johnson - Sprint Cup
Car: No. 48 Chevrolet
Team: Jeff Gordon/Hendrick Motorsports
Crew Chief: Chad Knaus
Birthdate: 9/17/1975
Country: USA
Outlook
After two seasons of failing to win the Sprint Cup Series championship, we still have to rank Johnson the number one driver entering the season. The facts show that the Hendrick Motorsports star has been one of the prime contenders to win the title each of the last two years, but has come up just short in those efforts. Johnson has won seven victories and posted a stunning 45 Top-10 finishes in the last two years, so you cannot argue with the level of performance. Once again crew chief Chad Knaus and Johnson will team to get that elusive sixth championship. There’s little doubt that he’ll be in the running come November.
