Yes, he surely would have been in the top 5 if he'd kept running at the same pace and very likely could have won. He got 11 points at the 500 and fifth was worth 66 points. Graham routinely admits to his errors, even claiming some responsibility for the wheel coming loose - as he evidently left the pit box without a signal from the front wheel man. In a routine stop when the car hits the ground it's time to go, so it's hard to fault him on that.
