NASCAR remains on hiatus for another week, but that doesn't mean the season is over. With only a few weeks to go until the postseason commences, it's all hands on deck as the playoff race approaches the home stretch.
During the break, Kyle Larson still holds a slight lead over Chase Elliott for the top spot in the Cup Series regular-season standings.
The Sporting News has everything you need to know before NASCAR's return, including the remaining schedule, tickets and more.
