Austin Hill won Saturday’s regular-season finale — the United Rentals 176 — at Watkins Glen International, solidifying the postseason picture. The race was called with 11 laps remaining due to weather.

The Round of 10 begins Aug. 20 at the World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway in Madison, Illinois (9 p.m. ET on FS1, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio). It’ll then continue at Darlington Raceway (Sept. 5) and Bristol Motor Speedway (Sept. 16), where two drivers will be eliminated. The Round of 8 consists of races at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Talladega Superspeedway and Martinsville Raceway and will see four drivers eliminated following the Martinsville race. The title race will be held at Phoenix Raceway on Nov. 5
