In the twelve races following his win he’s only finished in the top ten twice and all of his other finishes are 20th or worse. Jimmie Johnson has ran in the front of the pack and the back of the pack but nothing seems to help him here. His 9.9 average start in the last 12 races it tied for second best but qualifying means little here. In this years Daytona 500 Jimmie Johnson had a very short race. On lap #2 Elliott Sadler bumped his left rear and it sent him spinning to a DNF. (Yahoo! A Driver)
