Ten rounds into the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series and Kyle Larson keeps hold of his Championship lead. The gap behind him may have decreased but after a wild race in Talladega, the 31-year-old is still on top.
Martin Truex Jr has held down his second position in the Championship as well after he finished in 11th place yesterday.
Chase Elliott put himself inside the top three in the standings after finishing 15th place yesterday. Just behind Elliott is his Hendrick Motorsport team-mate William Byron in fourth place.
Thanks to his race win in Talladega Tyler Reddick has found his way into the top five. The 23XI Toyota driver has moved up from eighth overall to fifth place.
Denny Hamlin had a disastrous race yesterday after getting wrecked by his fellow Toyota drivers. This has put the #11 car down in sixth in the Championship, behind the car that he owns, and down three places from where he was before the weekend.
One of the big movers was Alex Bowman who moved up four places in the standings as he entered the top ten in the Championship.
