If there is a repeat winner (like a win by Aric Almirola, Kyle Busch, Kurt Busch, Clint Bowyer or Matt DiBenedetto), the following drivers could sound like they were 56 points above the fifth winless driver in the standings.

• Kyle Busch: Would sound like 6 points
• Kurt Busch: Would sound like 26 points
• Clint Bowyer: Would sound like 36 points
