The NASCAR Cup Series standings have been updated after RFK Racing driver Chris Buescher and his No. 17 Ford team were hit with hefty penalties ahead of the the All-Star Race weekend at North Wilkesboro Speedway.

The hefty penalties came three days after Buescher, from Prosper, finished eighth at Kansas and dropped him from 12th in the Cup Series point standings

Kyle Larson jumped into the lead of the NASCAR Cup Series points standings by way of the win at Kansas on May 11. Larson maxed out on points in the AdventHealth 400, sweeping the stages and earning the point for having the fastest lap.
