NASCAR Cup Series Point Standings After Charlotte

Logan Riely/Getty Images for NASCAR

William Byron didn't win Sunday's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, but by winning Stage 1, 2, and 3, and coming home with a second-place finish, Byron was able to mount a massive haul of points. Byron's hefty point total in Sunday's race, coupled with a 37th-place finish for Kyle Larson, allowed the driver of the No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet to reclaim the NASCAR Cup Series point lead.

RESULTS: Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte

Byron came into the weekend 35 points behind Larson, after Larson flat-out dominated the AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway a couple of weeks ago. However, Byron turned the tables with a dominant performance in the Coca-Cola 600, where he led 283 of 400 laps.

While Byron took the point lead, Ross Chastain secured his place in the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs with a win in Sunday's crown jewel event. Chastain made the race-winning pass on Byron with six laps remaining in the race, and he didn't look back.

Here are the updated 2025 NASCAR Cup Series point standings after the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, the 13th race of the 26-race NASCAR Cup Series regular-season, and 36-race season.
