The **NASCAR Cup Series** Chase for the Championship took an unexpected turn at Darlington Raceway this weekend, as **Ty Gibbs** delivered a commanding second-place finish behind **Joe Gibbs Racing** teammate **Christopher Bell**. While the result was impressive on the track, Gibbs found himself two spots lower in the standings—dropping from fourth to sixth—due to a scoring system he described as 'unfair' and 'squirrelly' in post-race interviews. The issue stems from stage points, where Gibbs earned just one point across the first two stages, significantly impacting his overall Chase position despite his weekend performance.
