NASCAR playoff picture: Cup Series points standings after Charlotte Roval

This story was updated to add new information.

Four more drivers were eliminated in Sunday's Bank of America ROVAL 400 NASCAR Cup Series cutoff race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway road course.

Ausitn Cindric, Daniel Suarez and Chase Briscoe were eliminated from the playoffs on the track. Alex Bowman was disqualified from Sunday's race after his No. 48 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet did not meet the minimum weight requirement during post-race inspection.

Tyler Reddick won the first stage on Sunday, then had to start the second stage in the middle of the pack due to pit strategy and got into trouble colliding with Denny Hamlin while also bouncing on the curb. It took several stops for the No. 45 Toyota to become more competitive, but Reddick moved up from the mid-20s into an 11th-place finish to earn enough points to advance before the post-race drama.

Kyle Larson added more playoff points with his win on Sunday, as he, Christopher Bell and William Byron clinched into the next round before the start of the final stage at the Roval.

Here's the full playoff picture after Sunday's race at the Charlotte Roval, with the standings resetting for the Round of 8:
