Points Changes
Jeff Gordon left the track with a 312-point lead on second-place Tony Stewart. However, points were reset after the race, with each qualifying driver receiving a base score of 5000 points.

—Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)
“A bath and a tenderloin steak. Those are the high points of a man’s life.”
