2015 NASCAR Week 24 Chase Standings

2015 Chase Standings After 24 Races



By Richard Tix

Another race down and the pressure ramps up. NASCAR leaves Bristol Motor Speedway behind for 2015 and heads into a bye week. After some needed time off teams pack back up and head to Darlington Raceway and then Richmond International Raceway before the Chase grid is locked. 

Joey Logano win at BMS jumping him up two spots from 5th to 3rd. Jamie McMurray kept his spot as the number one driver in points without a win which almost locks him into a spot in the Chase. Newman, Menard, and Gordon are all but locked in as long as someone outside the top 16 now doesn't win one of the remaining two races.

Bowyer notched a top 5 at Bristol meaning anyone outside the top 16 needs to get a win, or hope Bowyer screws up big time in the next two races. Check out the rest of the standings below.

2015 NASCAR Week 23 Chase Standings

2015 Chase Standings After 23 Races


By Richard Tix

After the 23rd race of the 2015 season at Michigan International Speedway, not much has changed. Matt Kenseths win moved him up the standings a bit and Clint Bowyer's rough day put him closer to the cut off line (16th). McMurray, Menard, Newman, and Gordon seem to be safe for now as long as no new driver gets a win (that isn't already one of them).
