Best Answer

The most recent NASCAR Sprint Cup (formerly Nextel Cup and Winston Cup) series champion was Tony Stewart, who tied Carl Edwards in the 2011 Chase For the Sprint Cup, and was awarded the championship based on number of wins compared to Carl Edwards. After the 2003 Winston Cup season the name was changed to Nextel Cup. The winner of the last Championship under the title Winston Cup was Matt Kenseth in the 2003 series.
