Cup Standings After Rockingham
While Rockingham made its triumphant return, the NASCAR Cup Series enjoyed its lone off-week of the 2025 season. This was the first year that Cup wasn’t racing on Easter Sunday — a traditional bye week — since 2021, and the series won’t have another weekend off until the end of the season in early November.
Nine races — a quarter of the season — are in the books, and Cup will be back in action next week at the biggest and fastest oval on the calendar.
Up Next: The Jack Link’s 500 at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday, April 27. Coverage will begin at 3 p.m. ET on FOX.
Xfinity Standings After Rockingham
Jesse Love took the checkered flag, but it was Sammy Smith who took the win after the No. 2 car was disqualified in post-race tech for a rear suspension violation. It’s the third Xfinity Series win of Smith’s career, and he becomes the sixth driver to clinch a spot in the playoffs. He also won the last Dash 4 Cash bonus of the 2025 season.
The DQ drops Love from second in regular season points to fourth. He and the No. 2 team will have the opportunity to appeal the decision this week.
NOTE: Part-time drivers who are eligible for series points but ineligible for the championship will not be displayed in these graphics.
