Bubba Wallace won his second career Cup Series race with a dominate performance in the final laps at Kansas Speedway. He is the second non-playoff-eligible driver to win following Erik Jones at Darlington last week.
Wallace was driving the #45 car for 23XI Racing instead of his #23 car. Busch is still unable to drive following a concussion he sustained in a qualifying accident at Pocono Raceway in July.
The drivers will race at Bristol Speedway this Saturday night, the final segment of the first round of the playoffs. Four drivers will be cut from the playoff field after this weekend’s race.
