After seven months of NASCAR action, the Cup Series is down to one last race before the playoffs begin. The grid returns to Darlington Raceway for the second and final time in 2024 with one more chance for drivers to make a push before the playoffs.
Thirteen of the 16 playoff spots are set heading into the final round. Darlington’s reputation as one of the most demanding tracks of the year will make a win hard-earned. A new playoff contender may emerge, like last weekend in Daytona, or one of the 13 may add to their resume with another win prior to the Round of 16.
