This weekend the NASCAR Cup Series and Xfinity Series head to New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Martin Truex Jr., who recently announced that this would be his final full-time season, is the defending race winner at the 1.058-mile track.
So far this season, 10 different drivers have won Cup Series races and have guaranteed their spot in the Playoffs – William Byron, Daniel Suárez, Kyle Larson, Christopher Bell, Denny Hamlin, Chase Elliott, Tyler Reddick, Brad Keselowski, Austin Cindric and Ryan Blaney. That leaves only six available spots up for grabs.
Sam Mayer, Austin Hill, Chandler Smith, Justin Allgaier, Jesse Love, and Shane van Gisbergen have already raced their way into the Xfinity Series Playoffs via wins this year. Cole Custer has also earned a spot in the Playoffs as the points leader, leaving five available spots.
The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series is off and will return to competition on Friday, June 28 at Nashville Superspeedway.
