The 23rd regular-season race for the Cup Series on the NASCAR schedule took place on Sunday afternoon at Iowa Speedway. Only four playoff spots were left with three races to go coming into Sunday and the NASCAR points leaders after Iowa got a bit of a shakeup after the Iowa Corn 350.
Following the conclusion of Sunday's race, we're taking a look at the updated NASCAR standings in the Cup Series. There are now only three races remaining before the NASCAR Cup Series playoffs begin, so a few playoff spots will come down to points totals.
