LONG POND, Pa. (AP) -- Jimmie Johnson was the picture of cool after his trip to Victory Lane, mugging for cameras, swigging champagne and using a little math to figure out how close he was to the points lead.
He hardly looked like a driver who almost had a win pulled out from under him.
Johnson used a near-flawless performance to overcome a NASCAR mistake and won another caution-filled race Sunday at Pocono Raceway.
"We were just fast all the way through," Johnson said. "The pit stops were fast, the race car was fast, the driver was fast."
Johnson controlled most of the Pocono 500 for his second win in three weeks, third this year and ninth of his career. He's led 820 miles in the last three races and has two more seconds in his last five.
