NASCAR Rule Book Removes The Playoffs

A significant update to the NASCAR Rule Book has officially reinstated the Chase for the Championship format, eliminating references to ‘the playoffs’ and ‘playoff points.’ Changes include a new suspension policy that allows drivers to retain their points standings despite a race suspension, adjustments to eligibility for fastest lap bonus points, and expanded participation for Cup drivers in lower series. Additional rules address age limits for drivers and stricter penalties for loose lug nuts in the Truck and O’Reilly Series.
