Ranking the 5 worst drivers in the 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series by points

Justin Allgaier claimed the 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series title ahead of Cole Custer, AJ Allmendinger, and Austin Hill in the season-ending race in Phoenix. The JR Motorsports driver finished the championship race in second place behind race winner Riley Herbst.

However, it was enough for him to clinch the title, thanks to his superiority in points. While the season was a positive one for the aforementioned drivers, some drivers failed to make a mark and ended up at the bottom of the standings.

Here, we take a look at the five worst drivers in terms of points. To make the field equitable, we have decided to count drivers with a minimum of five race entries.

Let's take a look:
