This is the second-consecutive week that the 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS) champion will start from inside the top 10. Joey Logano and the No. 22 Shell-Pennzoil Ford Fusion team will start Sunday’s race from the 22nd position. Logano is the most-recent NSCS winner at Talladega with the win coming in his historic sweep of the second round of the Chase for the Championship last year.
