After a solid fifth-place finish in the season-opening Daytona 500, Stewart had the second-best car at California Speedway and wound up finishing last because of late-race engine failure. Then, last Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Stewart spent most of the race in the top five but eventually faded to a 21st-place finish with a deflating tire.
