After a controversial ending to the race in Atlanta on Sunday night, the latest NASCAR Cup Series standings have been revealed.

After two points-scoring races, the Joe Gibbs Racing driver has collected 53 points, only good enough for 12th position at this stage.
Currently, the Cup Series standings are led by Ryan Blaney — a surprising turn of events given that the Team Penske star is yet to register a race victory.
William Byron, Tyler Reddick, Austin Cindric, and Bubba Wallace all round out the top five, whilst the standings make for a miserable look if you're Chase Elliott.
After his #19 team were found to have broken the rules at Daytona, several punishments were issued, one of which saw Elliot deducted 100 points. As a result, the Joe Gibbs Racing driver sits rock-bottom of the standings on -51 points after two races.
Chase Briscoe sits on -51 points after a huge NASCAR penalty
