Kenseth was also the champion in 2009.  He is the first repeat champion since Jeff Gordon backed up victories in 1997 and 1999 with a 2005 win.  Dale Earnhardt Jr. took second place, while Kenseth's Roush-Fenway teammate Greg Biffle finished third.  Denny Hamlin and Jeff Burton rounded out the top-five.

Originally, it was supposed to be at noon today, but Mother Nature was again uncooperative. That is actually good news for race fans, as the event is now scheduled to get underway shortly after 7 tonight from Daytona International Speedway in Florida.
