I believe Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson were better friends earlier in Jimmie's career. Jeff did encourage Jimmie to start driving full time in the Nascar Cup Series back in 2002 and is also a co-owner of the #48 car, along with Rick Hendrick. But as time passes and Jimmie keeps on winning more races and championships, you're starting to see Jeff's frustration mount more and more.
Jeff Gordon has earned more in career earnings than Tony Stewart.
Only Dale Earnhardt Sr. and Richard Petty have won more Nascar championships than Jimmie Johnson. They have each won seven titles and Jimmie has won five.

There is no doubt that "The Intimidator" is the best that NASCAR has ever seen. He was a master on the track and equally good with the press. Dale Earnhardt left us while still on top of his game. He certainly had many more wins in front of him and a great shot at his eighth championship.* http://nascar.about.com/od/legends/tp/bestdriversever.htm
