No. 4 – Joey Logano

Logano might not have had the wins that he was looking for in 2016 but at the end of the year he and his No. 22 teams were exactly where they wanted to be, the championship race in Miami.

Logano is no stranger to making it to the final-four in Miami as he has now done it in two of the last three seasons. Logano would have made it three seasons in a row had it not been for his issues with Matt Kenseth in 2015 and the aftermath of what those issues resulted in.

The final 10 races of the season are right in the wheel house for Logano and the No. 22 team and that is why they have been so successful under the current Chase format. All that’s left for Logano to do is to win at Homestead as that’s what its taken for crown a champion each of the last three seasons.
