    Jeff Gordon crossed the finish line in silence, unsure of what to say after losing yet another race.

    The four-time NASCAR champion remained winless this season after Kyle Busch beat him with a late pass Saturday night at Richmond International Raceway.

    Crew chief Steve Letarte was the first to finally speak, breaking the silence with a brief pep talk to the deflated No. 24 crew.

    "Good job, guys; another good car," Letarte said on the radio. "We're going to get him one."

    Eventually, the law of averages will even out and Gordon will get to victory lane.

    Until then, he'll have to suffer through frustrating near-misses that have pushed Gordon's losing streak to 39 races. His last win was at Texas last year; he has won just one of his past 87 races.
