Jimmie Johnson remained the king of the hill through the third segment of the Sprint All-Star Race Saturday night at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Johnson led every lap in the 20-lap second segment and then duplicated that feat in segment three, dominating at the front. He held a lead of almost two seconds throughout the segment and led Denny Hamlin by 2.56 seconds at the end of the segment.

Completing the top five at the end of the next-to-last segment were Mark Martin, Brad Keselowski and Kyle Busch.
