2022 NASCAR at Las Vegas - Start time, how to watch, schedule & more

Christopher Bell earned a dramatic win at the Charlotte Roval that saved him from playoff elimination.  

Instead, it was reigning champion Kyle Larson, Austin Cindric, Daniel Suarez and the sidelined Alex Bowman who cut from the ever-shrinking playoff field.

The last driver to transfer was Chase Briscoe, beating Larson by just two points. His advancement was not without controversy. NASCAR later penalized his teammate Cole Custer and the No. 41 Stewart-Haas Racing team for their efforts to help Briscoe on the final lap of the result. 

Custer was fined $100,000 and docked 50 driver and owner points. Crew chief Mike Shiplett was fined a further $100,000 and indefinitely suspended. SHR denies any wrongdoing and plans to appeal.
