Cup Playoffs’ Round of 8 gets underway this weekend at Las Vegas
Las Vegas is the first chance for Xfinity Playoff contenders to lock into the Championship Four
The penultimate round of the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs begins this week with the South Point 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway (2:30 p.m. ET on NBC, PRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) with a shake-up atop the standings and an important three-race slate in front of the Playoff competitors.
The last four NASCAR Cup Series champions are among the eight-driver group vying for a position in the Championship Four that will compete for the title Nov. 10 at Phoenix Raceway.
After Hendrick Motorsports driver Kyle Larson dominated the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs’ Round of 12 elimination race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Road Course, four more drivers have been eliminated from the postseason – Alex Bowman, Austin Cindric, Daniel Suarez and Chase Biscoe. Now, the remaining eight postseason contenders must adjust their focus as the Playoff spotlight turns to the 1.5-mile Las Vegas Motor Speedway for this Sunday’s South Point 400 on NBC, PRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio (Channel 90), the seventh race of the Playoffs and the first race of the Round of 8.
This season’s Round of 8 contenders include four former NASCAR Cup Series Champions (Kyle Larson, Ryan Blaney, Chase Elliott and Joey Logano), and all eight drivers have previously competed in the Round of 8 in their careers. Interestingly, seven of the eight have previously earned a spot in the Championship 4 Round in their careers, the lone exception looking to make the Championship Four for the first time, is 23XI Racing’s Tyler Reddick.
After wrapping up the NASCAR Xfinity Series Playoffs’ Round of 12 last weekend at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Road Course and eliminating four drivers from the postseason – Shane van Gisbergen, Sheldon Creed, Riley Herbst and Parker Kligerman – it’s time to unleash the eight contenders that advanced on Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the Ambetter Health 302, this Saturday, Oct. 19 at 7 p.m. ET on the CW, PRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio, the fourth event of the seven-race Playoffs and the first of the Round of 8.
Heading into this weekend at Las Vegas, JR Motorsport’s driver Justin Allgaier ranks first in the Playoff standings, up +18 points on the Championship 4 Round cutoff. In Allgaier’s tire tracks are Stewart-Haas Racing’s Cole Custer in second, up +11 points on the next round’s cut line, Richard Childress Racing’s Austin Hill in third, up +9 on the cutline and Joe Gibbs Racing’s Chandler Smith is fourth, up eight points on the cutoff.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (October 15, 2024) – Below is a look at some of the top statistical performers at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in Las Vegas, Nevada, going into the South Point 400 on Sunday, October 20 at 2:30 p.m. ET on NBC, PRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio (Channel 90) – the seventh race of the 10-race Playoffs and the first of the Round of 8.

It wasn’t Friday the 13th. It was Sunday the 13th, but just like Jason Voorhees from the well-known horror franchise, Joey Logano is back—and ready to frighten seven other survivors in the Round of 8 of the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs.
It’s an even-numbered year after all.
When the Bank of America ROVAL 400 ended on Sunday afternoon at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Road Course, Logano had failed to advance to the Round of 8 by four points, thanks to a determined charge through the field by Regular Season Champion Tyler Reddick.
