11:00 a.m. -- The third race of the Chase heads to the First State with Joe Gibbs Racing's Matt Kenseth and Kyle Busch dominating the title fight so far, with five-time champion Jimmie Johnson nipping at their heels. Is it truly a three-man race already or is it too early to tell? Greg Biffle's opinion is pretty clear, as he explained on FOX Sports 1's NASCAR RaceDay.
A seven-time winner at Dover, Johnson spent his morning giving advice to young racers. Hey kids, you might want to listen up.
