No. 5 - Tony Stewart

Tony Stewart finished fourth in the race at Phoenix International Raceway and moved up one spot in the NASCAR Chase for the Nextel Cup standings. He is fifth and can move up as high as fourth before the season ends this weekend at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
He can also drop as far as 11th.
Stewart would rather be in contention for the championship. He was asked if the pressure isn't as high since he has no chance of catching the top three drivers, Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon or Clint Bowyer, in the Cup standings.
“Trust me, I’d much rather have the pressure of being the point leader, or even remotely close to the point leader," said Stewart, driver of the No. 20 Chevrolet for Joe Gibbs Racing. "But being where we are does take a little bit of that edge off. Still, I’d much rather be right there in the middle of the championship knowing that we’ve got a shot of winning it. Pressure is a part of this business, and we’re all used to it by now.”
The car his team is bringing to Miami won its first two starts. It is the car that won the races at Chicagoland Speedway and Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
It is also the car that probably should have won the race at Kansas Speedway. Instead, it is the car that blew a tire and got tagged by Kurt Busch and Carl Edwards at Kansas. The car has been repaired and made two trips for testing in the wind tunnel before heading to Miami for the season finale.
“We’re just going out there to try and win the race," Stewart said. "That’s all we can do. We’re not in a championship battle, but we’re still in a battle for points. We still have to go out and do the best we can to get as many points as we can.”
