Clint Bowyer‘s victory last night came after a rain delayed Federated Auto Parts 400, which ran early into Sunday morning. This was Bowyer’s second of the season, second at Richmond International Raceway and seventh of his career. He and teammate Martin Truex Jr. are the first two Michael Waltrip Racing drivers to ever make the Chase.

So how are the points reset?

Each of the 12 qualifiers begins the 10-race competition with 2,000 points. The top-10 qualifiers are awarded three bonus points for each victory.

Kasey Kahne and Jeff Gordon earned the two Wild Card spots for the 2012 Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. The two Wild Card qualifiers receive no bonus points regardless of how many times they have won during the regular season.

Below are the points reset for the Chase, which begins next week, Sept. 16th, at Chicagoland Speedway:
