NASCAR UPDATE

Congratulations to Tony Stewart!

After a two-tire gamble last weekend at Dover International Raceway Tony Stewart snagged a second place finish after a fantastic race with eventual winner Jimmie Johnson. Sunday's runner up effort was Stewart's third of the 2009 campaign.

Stewart's sixth top five of the season also leap-frogged him ahead of Jeff Gordon for the Sprint Cup Series Points lead for the first time since Nov. 2005.

This week, the Sprint Cup Series heads to Pocono, PA where Stewart will start on the Pole by virtue of a rained-out qualifying.
