Clinching Scenarios: Cup Series – Bristol

Last week Chris Buescher (and a host of others) played playoff spoiler as only 2 playoff drivers finished in the Top 11 at Watkins Glen! Now we head to the Round of 16 finale, Bristol, where at least 14 playoff spots will be earned based on points. Below are the scenarios in which no matter what happens in the race Saturday, if the scenario happens then the ticket is punched to the Round of 12. The only thing that can make a scenario change is if the finishing order changes the tie breaker, but still that only changes some scenarios by 1 point.
P.s. Obviously if a driver wins the race then they are in the next round, but that’s a boring and simple scenario to figure out, so only must win scenarios are mentioned.

*Does not include winning driver/owner scenario
