Kyle Larson felt he was “used up” by Denny Hamlin as it was the only way the Joe Gibbs Racing driver was going to beat him Sunday at Pocono Raceway.

Ross Chastain has angered yet another person in NASCAR, only this time it’s not a fellow driver, but the series’ most successful team owner:

Legacy Motor Club, the team co-owned by Maury Gallagher and Jimmie Johnson, will field two Toyota entries in the NASCAR Cup Series next season.

Ongoing questions about Kyle Busch’s future are expected to be answered with confirmation of a move to Richard Childress Racing in the coming days.

Kurt Busch has not been cleared by the NASCAR medical team to return to competition this weekend at the Indianapolis road course,” his team said.

Doctors have not cleared Kurt Busch to compete in Sunday’s Cup race at Pocono Raceway after another evaluation following his crash in qualifying.

One spot remains up for grabs on the NASCAR Cup Series playoff grid, and it will be determined in an unpredictable regular-season finale.
