Despite Jimmie Johnson's three wins on the season, he's had a rough stretch over the last few races.
Johnson wrecked out late in the Brickyard 400, and he failed to finish at Pocono after colliding with Kasey Kahne early in Stage 2 of the race.

Despite the recent string of bad luck, Johnson is still tied for the lead in wins this season with Martin Truex Jr., and he has a chance to capture his eighth Cup championship this year.
