Austin Cindric Wins Second Career Race; Kyle Larson Receives Playoff Waiver

Jun 4, 2024, 01:30 PM

Austin Cindric ended an 85-race winless streak with a victory at the NASCAR Cup Series race at World Wide Technology Raceway. Cindric's win, which came at a pre week price of 150-1, was facilitated by teammate Ryan Blaney running out of fuel on the final lap. This marks Cindric's first top-five finish on a non-superspeedway or road course and a career-high 53 laps led. The win also locks Cindric into the NASCAR Playoffs and is his second race of his career. Penske Corporation vice chairman Walt Czarnecki stated the organization never lost faith in Cindric. Meanwhile, Kyle Larson, who was shown with zero playoff points, received a waiver from NASCAR, making him eligible for the playoffs despite missing the Coca-Cola 600 due to rain delays at the Indianapolis 500. Larson's waiver was granted as NASCAR acknowledged the unique circumstances and his effort to return to Charlotte.
