free agents this summer.As 16 become eight in the Europa Lea

Even before the penalty issued Tuesday to Ryan Newman, the Richard Childress Racing driver was going to have a tough time getting into the Chase for the Sprint Cup without some help.Now he really could use the help.There have been 13 winners this year, and all 13 are in the top 30 in points. That leaves three spots in the Chase provisionally open to winless drivers, with there being only two if a previously winless driver triumphs at Richmond.With the penalty announced Tuesday, among the winless, Newman trails the three drivers currently in on points, Jamie McMurray by 22 points, Austin Dillon by 31 and Chase Elliott by 39.Its doable, Newman said Saturday. We can win a race. Thats doable, too. If we can separate the math from it, we can go down there and have some fun. Well go there to win.Pocono winner Chris Buescher has an 11-point cushion on 30th-place David Ragan. If he falls out of the top 30 and a driver who already has won a race this year wins at Richmond, there would be a fourth spot available by points. With the penalty, Newman has a 22-point edge on Kasey Kahne heading into Richmond for that spot.Heres a look at drivers chances to make the Chase:Chase Elliott: Hes in a good position. All he needs is a 17th-place finish at Richmond and hes in no matter what anyone else does. If there is not a new 2016 winner or Chris Buescher falls out of the top 30, all he needs is a 39th. Elliott owns all tiebreakers. Elliott has finishes of 16th and 12th in his two career Cup starts at Richmond.Austin Dillon: He pretty much controls his own destiny as long as things dont get too crazy. Hes in with an eighth-place finish or better. If there is not a new 2016 winner or Chris Buescher falls out of the top 30, all he needs is a 30th and hes in no matter what anyone else does. But if there is a new winner, hes just nine points ahead of Jamie McMurray for what would be the final spot. Dillon owns the tiebreaker on McMurray as long as McMurray doesnt finish second and Dillon owns the tiebreaker on Newman as long as Newman doesnt finish second or third. Richmond is not a good track for Dillon. His best finish is 20th in five starts with an average finish of 24.2.Jamie McMurray: He was in a much more precarious spot before the Newman penalty. He had just a seven-point lead on Newman -- now its 22 -- and loses all tiebreakers to Newman. Richmond is not a great track for McMurray, who has an average finish of 20th. He does have three fourth-place finishes in his six previous Richmond starts.Ryan Newman: He needs to make up either 22 points on McMurray, most likely 32 points on Dillon or 39 on Chase Elliott. Richmond is a solid track for Newman, who won there in 2003 and has six top-5s in 29 starts with an average finish of 11.7 -- but he hasnt finished top-10 at Richmond in his past three starts. Being 22 points behind, he pretty much will need to think he has to win.Kasey Kahne: He needs a virtual miracle -- Chris Buescher falling out of the top-30 and Kahne gaining 22 points on Newman. To do that, Newman would have to finish 22nd or worse. Kahne wins the tiebreaker on Newman if he finishes second or third. Kahne did win at Richmond back in 2005 and has had two top-10s in his past three starts at the track. But he hasnt finished better than fourth since April 2011.Chris Buescher: Buescher owns all tiebreakers with Ragan, so his 11-point edge is really 12 points. But Richmond is not one of Bueschers best tracks. He has just one Cup start there, starting 33rd and finishing 34th in the spring. He had one top-10 in five Xfinity starts there. David Ragan hasnt had a whole lot of success, and driving for BK Racing in April, he was 23rd.Drivers needing a win at Richmond to get into the Chase: Ryan Blaney, AJ Allmendinger, Trevor Bayne, Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Paul Menard, Greg Biffle, Danica Patrick, Aric Almirola, Clint Bowyer, Casey Mears and Landon Cassill. Among those drivers, only Bowyer has ever won a Cup race at Richmond and hes about as far from winning at Richmond as Martinsville is from that track.David Ragan and Regan Smith could get into the Chase with a win but would need help to make it into the top 30.
