Chicago Race Sets the Stage for NBC Sports NASCAR Power Rankings

Chaos ensued last weekend at Nashville Superspeedway, but the NBC Sports NASCAR Power Rankings did not see significant changes. Christopher Bell maintains his position as No. 1, while Chris Buescher enters the rankings after achieving another top-five result. The series will race on the streets of Chicago this Sunday at 4:30 p.m. ET on NBC.

Christopher Bell, despite crashing while leading the race, continues to dominate the rankings. He has won stages in four of the last six races, accumulated 24 playoff points, and led 28.9% of the laps run in the last six races. Kyle Larson follows closely behind, with six top 10s in his last eight starts, including two wins and a runner-up finish.

Tyler Reddick, frustrated by not being able to pass Joey Logano for the win, finished third at Nashville and has achieved five top 10s in the last six races. Chase Elliott remains consistent with no finish outside the top 20 this season, finishing 18th despite multiple incidents. Denny Hamlin was close to winning twice in overtime but had to pit for fuel and finished 12th.

Ryan Blaney, Chris Buescher, Brad Keselowski, William Byron, and Ross Chastain round out the top 10 in the rankings. Buescher has impressed with back-to-back fifth-place finishes and three top-five results in the last four races. Josh Berry dropped out of the rankings after the latest race at Nashville Superspeedway.
