Four drivers have been eliminated from the NASCAR playoffs:
The showdown on the Bristol short track was the first elimination race of NASCAR’s playoffs and it was a nail-biter to the very end as at least a dozen of the 16 title contenders had some sort of problem. There was a rash of flat tires for Ford drivers, mechanical problems for Toyota, an engine failure for Kyle Busch and Richard Childress Racing’s two drivers were both involved in a crash.
Harvick, Busch and Dillon were all below the cutline headed into the race, but Harvick had a shot at the win until a wheel fell off his Ford during the final pit stop. He’d inherited a near-clear path to the victory – and an automatic berth into the next round – when Keselowski got a flat tire and hit the wall while leading.
Among those who had no problems were Hendrick Motorsports teammates Chase Elliott and William Byron, who finished second and third in Chevrolets. “I don’t think anybody is safe,” Elliott said. “Nobody is safe in these rounds. And we want to do better, too.”Kyle Busch won’t race for a third championship in his final season with Joe Gibbs Racing. Busch closed a wild week in which he announced, then went to Bristol desperately trying to stay in title contention.
