NASCAR travels to Las Vegas Motor Speedway this weekend as the Playoffs continue. The Cup Series will begin the Round of 8 at the 1.5-mile track as the following drivers continue their quest for the 2024 championship title.
The 21-year-old Mayer from Franklin, Wisconsin, led 13 of 72 over-scheduled laps and overtook Parker Kligerman during an overtime shootout to notch his third Xfinity victory of 2024 and race his way into the Playoff's Round of 8.
The two-time ARCA Menards East champion from Johnston, Iowa, led five of 98 over-scheduled laps and muscled away from the field on the final lap of an overtime shootout to score his second Xfinity career victory and transfer into the Playoff's Round of 8.
The 40-year-old Almirola from Tampa, Florida, led 16 of 200-scheduled laps and rallied from pitting under green to address a flat right-rear tire from scraping the wall to overtake Cole Custer for the lead with three laps remaining and win for the second time in eight Xfinity starts in 2024.
The reigning Xfinity Series champion from Ladera Ranch, California, led a race-high 104 of 300 laps and rallied from falling off the pace with a cut tire to notch his second Xfinity victory of the 2024 season and claim his first regular-season title by three points.
