There are 47 drivers on the Sprint Cup entry list for the LifeLock.com 400 this weekend at Chicagoland Speedway.

PDF > PRELIMINARY ENTRY LIST: LIFELOCK.COM 400 - CHICAGOLAND SPEEDWAY

The 44 full-time teams are entered as are the part-time operations of Wood Brothers Racing’s Bill Elliott, Braun Racing’s Mike Bliss and Gunselman Motorsports’ Todd Bodine.

They are not among the 36 drivers guaranteed spots in the race. The top 35 are locked in by the owner standings, and Phoenix Racing’s Bobby Labonte will be able to use a past champion’s provisional if he does not get in on speed. If Labonte gets in on speed, then Elliott would be eligible for the past champion’s provisional.

The other drivers who must qualify on speed are Latitude 43 Motorsports’ David Stremme, Front Row Motorsports’ Travis Kvapil, Tommy Baldwin Racing’s Casey Mears, Whitney Motorsports’ J.J. Yeley, Germain Racing’s Max Papis, Nemco Motorsports’ Joe Nemechek, and Prism Motorsports’ Dave Blaney and Michael McDowell.

Mears will be driving for the third time this year for TBR. In other cars that have had multiple drivers this season, Andy Lally is entered in the TRG Motorsports car while Reed Sorenson is Brian Vickers’ replacement in the Red Bull Racing No. 83 entry.
