Ten drivers will compete for the Truck Series championship in the final seven races of the year, starting with the Chase opener Thursday, Sept. 17 at Bristol Motor Speedway (8 p.m. ET, FS1, NASCAR Racing Network Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).

Ty Majeski, Grant Enfinger, Daniel Hemric, Ben Rhodes and Tyler Ankrum completed the top 10 Chase drivers. Ankrum barely got the 10th and final spot after battling brake issues at Loudon, clipping Stewart Friesen and Jake Garcia, who were the first two drivers eliminated from postseason contention.
