Even after another top five finish, Tyler Reddick’s massive lead in the championship shrunk slightly from 129 points over Denny Hamlin<\/a> to 122 points. Chase Elliott is no longer third in points after an early exit from the Charlotte race.<\/p>\n

13 of the top 16 positions in the standings changes after Sunday’s marathon event, and the outlook going into the second half of the regular season suddenly looks quite different.<\/p>\n

A mid-race crash has dropped Ryan Preece<\/a> down onto the Chase bubble, 15 points clear of Austin Cindric<\/a> and 29 points clear of Joey Logano<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Chase Briscoe<\/a> moved back inside the top 16, even with a DNF on Sunday, as he collected an impressive amount of stage points before\u00a0that. Shane van Gisbergen<\/a> also moved himself up off the bubble with a solid showing on the oval.<\/p>\n

The biggest mover in the standings was surprise Coca-Cola 600 race winner Daniel Suarez<\/a>, jumping four spots into tenth place. At the other end of the spectrum was last year’s Coca-Cola 600 winner, Ross Chastain.<\/a> He is our biggest loser, dropping four positions from 19th to 23rd in points following a DNF.<\/p>\n
