With just two regular-season NASCAR Cup Series races left before the playoff period begins, one of the sport’s most notable names will not be competing at Watkins Glen or Daytona.
Kurt Busch shared that he will miss his fifth and sixth consecutive races as he continues to deal with concussion-like symptoms. The 44-year-old is still locked in for the playoffs thanks to a medical waiver, but the playoff picture as a whole remains muddled with 15 different winners so far this season.
Only 16 drivers compete for the playoffs.
