NASCAR 2023 Kansas II schedule, entry list, and how to watch

Larson earned his third points-paying win of the year in the Southern 500 at Darlington, beating Tyler Reddick and Chris Buescher to the checkered flag.

Denny Hamlin dominated the race, winning both stages, but was relegated to a 25th-place finish after an unscheduled pit stop for what he believed was a loose wheel.

The battle to advance remains close, with Bubba Wallace (-1pt), Kevin Harvick (-2pts), Ricky Stenhouse Jr. (-4pts), and Michael McDowell (-19pts) all below the cut-line.

Just above the cut-line are three of the drivers who made the Championship 4 last year with Ross Chastain (+13pts), Joey Logano (+3pts), and Christopher Bell (+1pt).

On Monday, Hamlin announced a multi-year contract extension with Joe Gibbs Racing. The current relationship with JGR and 23XI Racing will also remain intact.

On the Truck side, Late Model phenom Carson Kvapil announced that he will make his NASCAR Truck Series debut at Bristol next weekend.

NASCAR now heads to Kansas, where Wallace is the defending winner. 23XI Racing actually swept both races at Kansas in 2022 with Kurt Busch earning his final career victory in the spring race. Earlier this year, Hamlin won at Kansas after putting Larson into the wall on the final lap.
