NASCAR 2023: What does the points table looks like after the Toyota Owners 400 at Richmond Raceway

Seven races have taken place in the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series season so far. Hendrick Motorsports driver Kyle Larson became the sixth different winner of the season after winning the Toyota Owners 400 at Richmond Raceway on Sunday, April 2.

In an action-packed first short-track event, Larson beat his Hendrick Motorsports teammate Josh Berry in the closing miles and stayed out front to cross the checkered flag in P1.

With Sunday’s victory, Larson locked up his playoff spot and gained 52 points. He also moved from ninth to sixth position in the points table with 222 points, with one win and three top-five finishes.

Denny Hamlin, the defending winner of the event, failed to re-lift his trophy, finishing 20th. With this, he gained 27 points and stands in 12th place in the points table with 188 points.

Alex Bowman, the pole winner, fought for the lead for much of the day. He finished P7 in the first two stages and ended the race in eighth place. Bowman currently sits at the top of the points table with 263 points and three top-five finishes.
