Notable Notes
-
Playoff Bubble Drama: Ryan Preece is clinging to the last playoff spot by only 68 points over Kyle Busch.
-
Winless High Scorers: Tyler Reddick (7th in points) and Alex Bowman (9th) are in playoff position without a win — risky this late in the season.
-
Wildcard Threat: Shane van Gisbergen has 4 wins but sits 25th in points because he’s running a partial schedule — if he were full-time, he’d be a title contender.
