NASCAR hits Bristol Motor Speedway today (Sunday, September 15th) for the Bass Pro Shops Night Race - the final Cup Series playoff race before the round of 12 cutoff.
At present, only Joey Logano in the #22 Ford has confirmed his place in the next round following his victory at Atlanta Motor Speedway earlier this month.
Heading into Saturday, Denny Hamlin, Brad Keselowski, Martin Truex Jr and Harrison Burton are all on the bubble, but all know that a superb drive under the lights could see them escape elimination and remain in contention when the playoffs head to Kansas City next weekend.
Hamlin in particular looks in a strong position to get above the dotted line. The #11 Toyota driver qualified eighth for the race on Saturday and has former at this circuit having won this event last year, as well as the Food City 500 earlier in 2024.
