With one race remaining before the NASCAR Cup Series Championship 4 race, so much is still to be decided.
FOLLOW LIVE: Updates, highlights from the Xfinity 500 playoff elimination race at Martinsville
Team Penske's Joey Logano is the only racer who has etched their name into the championship final. He did so by snagging a win at Las Vegas.
That means everyone — from second-place Ross Chastain to eighth-place Chase Briscoe — is on the bubble. An unfortunate showing in this week's race could shake up the playoff field once more.
And what track is more unpredictable than Martinsville? Between its 11-degree banking, treacherous turns and 0.526-mile length, it's prone to spills and thrills.
The Paperclip is one of NASCAR's most exciting venues. And with a spot in the Championship 4 on the line, it should be the site of one of this year's most exciting races.
