What happens if you are 13th in points after richmond with a win?

May be...

  • Not at all, the 10 extra bonus points are only IF you make the chase and only applies to the chase seeding.
    3 STR8 N 08!!!
  • The bonus points are already in the equation. If you are 13th then you are not in the chase.

  • Nope if your in the 13th position in points when the chase starts then thats were you are you just keep collecting points until the end of the season.
  • Bowyer's gonna make it back in, so I assume you're talking about someone else? No, they don't make the chase if they are 13th.
  • no , you have to make the chase,, then when the points are reset for the top 12 youll get the 10 bonus pts for each win,,

    13th down fight for the 13th spot which pays a million and gets a seat on the podium at the Waldorf Astoria, for the awards ceremony,,,
  • nope...he won't make the Chase.
  • Yes, but it depends on how many laps the person in the 12th position completed and led. If the person in 12th has a DNF then yes you will be in the chase. If the person in 12th wins and leads the most laps then there is a good chance that you will not make it in the chase. I hope that this answers your question and hope you make it in the chase.
  • most likely the driver will make the Chase.
  • Once the Chase begins the guys in the Chase pretty much start fresh, I belive the one in 1st gets a few extra bonus point but othewise it's a whole new ball of wax. They start at -0-

    So to answer your question dosen't matter how many wins you have if you are out of the Chase you are out of the Chase.
  • it depends on what your saying..... if after the race hes in thirteenth then thats where he ends up but if those are the standings before the race then the person would get into the chase
  • ummm.... nope
  • That rule only applies if you're in the top 12. If you're not then no bonus for you.
  • nope you try to stay 13th for a million
  • You still get all of the points. The Top 12 guys are the only drivers locked in and allowed to run for the championship. The same for every team 13 and back. The point system stays the same. No reset in points for 13th and on back. The Points Leader has his lead reduced once the Chase starts after Richmond, and even if you collect more points than the 12th place team, You don't surpass the 12th place team. Those top 12 in the Chase are locked in and the only ones allowed to contend for the championship. Here's a link it doesn't really explain the Chase for the Cup a whole lot.

  • Once the finaly points are tallied, then who every is 13th in points will stay there becuase ther is no point reset from 13th on back, but them guys get to duke it out for the $1mil bonus.
  • A win is ten bonus points right? What happens if after richmond, a driver is 13th in points with a win, and the 12th place guy is 9 points ahead with no win. Do the 10 bonus points for the 13th place guy let him go ahead to 12th?
  • No. The top 12 after Richmond go to the chase. The points are then reset and those 12 drivers get 10 additional points for each win they've had. Simple.
