Brad Keselowski is this week’s biggest mover following his top ten finish, jumping four spots in the latest rankings.  Ryan Newman, Juan Pablo Montoya and David Ragan also had solid weeks.

On the flip side, Kevin Harvick is the biggest loser of the week.  Martin Truex Jr., Clint Bowyer and Dale Earnhardt Jr. join him with down weeks.

Following Kyle Busch in second place is Carl Edwards.  Kurt Busch, Matt Kenseth and Jimmie Johnson round out the top five following Week 18 (at Kentucky).
