With 10 races left in the NASCAR Cup Series regular season, it's time to have a chat about who will – and won't – be part of the conversation once the Chase starts.

RFK Racing has signed Chris Buescher to a multiyear contract extension, the organization announced Tuesday.

Ryan Preece didn’t have much to say about his penalty appeal being denied earlier this week, yet he said a lot Saturday at Nashville Superspeedway, clearly still frustrated.

RFK Racing has two permanent charters: the No. 6 Ford of co-owner and driver Brad Keselowski and the No. 17 Ford of Chris Buescher. The No. 60 charter for Ryan Preece has been leased from Rick Ware Racing. It can only be leased for one year.

The National Motorsports Appeals Panel has upheld the penalty levied against Ryan Preece for wrecking Ty Gibbs in the NASCAR Cup Series race at Texas Motor Speedway earlier this month.

Zane Smith’s team from Front Row Motorsports won the Mechanix Pit Crew Challenge during All-Star Race qualifying Saturday at Dover Motor Speedway, with a winning time was 12.612 seconds.

Ryan Preece was hit with a fine and points deduction for his contact with Ty Gibbs in Texas.

Ryan Preece has been fined and docked points for spinning Ty Gibbs during Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Texas Motor Speedway.NASCAR fined the RFK Racing driver $50,000 and docked him 25 championship points. The penalty drops Preece one spot in the championship standings from 12th to 13th.The incident occurred...

“As it stands today, there are no charters that I’m aware of that are for sale,” team co-owner Brad Keselowski said. “If there was, we’d certainly talk to everyone we’d think could potentially sell one, and they know our interest.”

Many might have expected Brad Keselowski to be down after his offseason injury, but he wasn't, nor was he out, as his fightback and subsequent performances have proven.
