NASCAR national championships on the line during final points weekend for the Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series

The 2024 points season for the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series comes to a close this weekend, and several championships will be decided along the way. Connor Hall continues to lead the Division I national standings as he pursues a second straight championship. Four more national champions -- Divisions II through V -- will be determined this weekend, as will the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series Division I Rookie of the Year. Below is a closer look at each of the championship battles in the aforementioned divisions.

Division II

At the top of the Division II standings is Bowman Gray Stadium's Zack Ore. The champion in Bowman Gray's Sportsman division for the 2024 season, Ore leads the Division II standings with 430 points thanks to five victories in 25 features this season. He's closely followed by Autodrome Granby regular Donovan Lussier and Bowman Gray's Chase Robertson, both of whom are 14 points behind. Lussier has five victories this year while Robertson has four. With no events scheduled at Bowman Gray or Autodrome Granby on the final weekend of competition, this championship battle is likely over.

Division III

Adams County Speedway Sport Mod champion Bryce Allen has all but locked up his first NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series national championship in Division III entering the final weekend of competition. With nine wins in 16 starts and 464 points scored, Allen has a comfortable, 48-point advantage on Berlin Raceway Sportsman division champion Ryan Holtzlander. Neither track has events scheduled this weekend.

Division IV

Perhaps the tightest championship battle across all NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series national championships comes in Division IV, where three drivers are separated by four points entering the final weekend of competition. Berlin Raceway's 4-Cylinder division champion Nathan McNabb and Adams County Speedway's Hobby Stock champion Adam Hensel are tied with 390 points each. Right behind them is Bowman Gray Stadium Stadium Stock champion A.J. Sanders, who is only four points out of the lead. No events are scheduled at Berlin or Adams County this weekend, meaning McNabb and Hensel are likely done scoring points. However, Sanders has competed at Bowman Gray, Florence Motor Speedway, Wake County Speedway and Kingsport Speedway this season in search of points. This championship is still too close to call.

Division V

The fight for the championship in Division V is also tight entering the final race weekend of the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series points season. Adams County Speedway Compact champion John Berg holds a slim, two-point advantage entering the weekend. Behind him is a fast-closing Zach Bristol, who has four wins this year as the champion of the Hornet division at Washington's Evergreen Speedway. Adams County Speedway is off this weekend, meaning Berg can't score any points toward the championship. However, Evergreen Speedway is racing this weekend, and the Hornet division is scheduled to participate. That means Bristol has a chance to potentially surpass Berg in the battle for the Division V championship.

Division I Rookie of the Year

A pair of young rising stars are locked in a heated battle for the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series Division I Rookie of the Year. Leading the way is Hunter Morgan, who is in his first season of competition in the Late Model Stock Car class at Tennessee's Kingsport Speedway. His four wins this year have helped him earn 344 points this season, giving him a 14-point advantage on Bowman Gray Stadium Modified division rookie Riley Neal. While the Bowman Gray Stadium season is over, that hasn't kept Neal from attempting to gain ground on Morgan. Neal has competed at Hickory Motor Speedway, Kingsport Speedway and Langley Speedway in recent weeks as he attempted to gain ground on Morgan.
