NASCAR Power Rankings: Bubba Wallace Enters Rankings With Brickyard Win

Bubba Wallace enters these power rankings thanks to his big victory at Indianapolis. His team owner remains atop this list thanks to a third-place finish.

But Wallace teammate Tyler Reddick? He drops out after another disappointing finish, a 29th-place run at Indy. He has just four top 10s in his last 14 starts.

Here’s a look at where drivers stand entering this weekend’s race at Iowa Speedway as four races remain in the regular season:
