NASCAR Playoffs Expand to 10 Trucks in 2020

NASCAR officials on Tuesday expanded the Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series playoff field from eight drivers to 10, a move that goes into effect for the 2020 season.

The Gander Trucks postseason schedule will remain at seven races, but the expansion will alter the elimination format that pares drivers from championship eligibility. That structure will now feature

The new structure will be as follows:

• Round of 10: World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway, Canadian Tire Motorsport Park and Bristol Motor Speedway
• Round of 8: Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Talladega Superspeedway, Martinsville Speedway
• Championship 4: Phoenix Raceway

NASCAR Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series Managing Director Brad Moran:

“Expanding the NASCAR Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series playoff field to 10 is a win-win for drivers, teams and, most importantly, the passionate fans who support our Gander Trucks. This will only increase the competitive intensity this series offers, as more drivers and teams vie for one of the most coveted championships in all of racing.”
