There wasn't a repeat of 2024's elimination race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Roval, as all playoff drivers passed post-race inspection on Sunday. Last year, Alex Bowman failed the post-race weight check, pushing him out of the playoffs and bringing Joey Logano back in. While there was a DQ this year as well, it didn't impact the playoff fight in any way.
The No. 35 23XI Racing Toyota of Riley Herbst was disqualified after faling the post-race weight checks. NASCAR is taking Herbst's car back down to the R&D Center for a full teardown, as well as the No. 41 Haas Factory Team Ford of Cole Custer.
