2021 NASCAR Cup Series - South Point 400

The Round of 12 playoffs of the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series kicked off at Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the South Point 400 and the remaining 12 drivers in the playoffs are going all-out to secure their spot for the final 8, whatever it takes.

As the green flag waved, the first match of the Round of 12 has begun. The first stage of the race saw Christian Bell's car made a pit road contact and in need of repairs, and damage for Kevin Harvick that could affect his playoffs hopes. 

With Kyle Larson won Stage 1, Stage 2 saw some intense progress for the playoffs contenders. As Denny Hamlin won Stage 2, the final round is where everything unfolds with the driver of the #15 car transported to a local medical facility for further evaluation and a flat tire for William Byron.
