Bubba Wallace's spotter Freddie Kraft took to social media to voice his opinion on the NASCAR playoff format. The spotter of the #23 car refers to himself as a "traditionalist" who loved the old 36-race format, where the driver with the highest amount of points at the end of the season won the championship. Realistically, however, Kraft doesn't expect NASCAR to bring the non-playoff system back.Kraft took to X and quote-posted a video from Dirty Mo Media, where racing insider Jordan Bianchi theorized the possibility of a four-race final round for the championship. While Kraft is a fan of the traditional points format, last used in 2003, he believes any realist knows that it won't return. Kraft went on to say that he wouldn't be bothered by a "compromise" between the old points system and a playoff format.Here's what Bubba Wallace's spotter wrote via X:"I think any traditionalist (🙋🏻‍♂️) loves a 36 race format. But any realist realizes that is VERY VERY unlikely to happen ever again. Whether you want to believe it or not, there are many fans that don’t want a full season format I don’t mind the compromise. Where do you stand?"The 16-driver playoff format has been in effect since 2014. A win during the regular season makes the driver playoff eligible. The drivers who make up the playoff field are determined by race wins and, if there's less than 16 different winners during the regular season, the winless drivers with the highest amount of points fill the regular spots.The 10-race playoffs are split into four rounds, the Round of 16, Round of 12, Round of 8 and Championship 4. Every three races, four drivers are eliminated, while a win in one of the three races guarantees the driver a spot in the next round. In the final race, the highest finisher of the remaining four drivers wins the championship.Bubba Wallace enters Bristol Cup race with 50-point gap over cut lineNASCAR: Southern 500 - Source: ImagnWith all the debate on the NASCAR playoff format, the current system is working in Bubba Wallace's favor.
