Jimmie Johnson scored his Sprint Cup Series-leading third win of the season after holding off Kevin Harvick in the closing laps of Saturday night's SpongeBob SquarePants 400 at Kansas Speedway.

This 400-mile race was stopped for 2 hours and 16 minutes due to a heavy shower that moved over this 1.5-mile racetrack after 98 of 267 laps had been completed.

Johnson, the six-time Sprint Cup champion, elected not to pit during the last round of pit stops under caution and took over the lead with 10 laps to go. His Hendrick Motorsports teammates, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Jeff Gordon, also did not pit. Johnson started 19th and was not much of a factor for most of the race.

On lap 5, Johnson almost spun out after exiting turn 4 and dropped as far back as 30th in the field before he patiently made his way towards the front.

After the final restart with six laps left, Johnson pulled away from Earnhardt and Harvick, who had pitted. Johnson beat Harvick to the finish line by 0.487 seconds, while Earnhardt crossed the line in third.

Joey Logano finished fourth after starting on the pole and leading the first 29 laps. Matt Kenseth placed sixth, followed by Brad Keselowski and Kurt Busch.

Martin Truex Jr. led a race-high 95 laps, but Truex took fuel only during his last pit stop and faded after the final restart to finish ninth.

Ryan Newman completed the top-10.
