Drew Blickensderfer, crew chief for the No. 17 Roush Fenway Racing Ford driven by Matt Kenseth, has been named the Wypall Wipers Crew Chief of the Race for last Sunday's AAA 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Dover International Speedway.
Kenseth started the race in 23rd and went on to finish third. A 13-second stop by the Blickensderfer-led team on lap 165 gained the group two positions and allowed Kenseth to restart ninth.
"We had a nice solid day on pit road and were able to get a good finish out of it," Kenseth said.
Bob Osborne, crew chief for Roush Fenway’s Carl Edwards, Todd Berrier, crew chief for Richard Childress Racing's Casey Mears and Fox/Speed analyst Jeff Hammond, along with representatives from the sponsor, serve as the panel for the challenge.
In addition to the $1,000 check, the winning crew chief will receive signage on his pit box the following week. The crew chief with the most weekly wins will be honored as the Wypall Wipers Crew Chief of the Year and will be presented a $20,000 check at the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
