It's playoff time in the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series! The 16 contenders vying for the championship are Kyle Larson, William Byron, Denny Hamlin, Ryan Blaney, Christopher Bell, Shane van Gisbergen, Chase Elliott, Chase Briscoe, Bubba Wallace, Austin Cindric, Ross Chastain, Joey Logano, Josh Berry, Tyler Reddick, Austin Dillon, and Alex Bowman. All participants have arrived, but only one can emerge victorious. The journey toward the title begins in Darlington, South Carolina, at the Cook Out Southern 500. Who will be the first driver to secure a spot in the Final 12?
As the green flag waved, the first playoff match of the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season began. The first stage saw problems for Alex Bowman following his extended pit stop, followed by a close call on pit road for Bubba Wallace. As Chase Briscoe wins Stage 1, Stage 2 gets messy with Carson Hocevar's spin, Denny Hamlin's pitstop woes, Christopher Bell's pit stop drama, a spin by the #51 car, and trouble for Ryan Blaney. With Stage 2 belonging to Briscoe, the final stage saw the #44 car going up in flames.
