The latest NASCAR power rankings are out following the Brickyard 400. Toyota drivers continue to show strength at the front of the field, securing four of the top five spots in this week’s lineup.

Denny Hamlin holds onto the top position, maintaining his status as the driver to beat on oval tracks. His recent performance includes seven top-five finishes across his last ten starts. Christopher Bell follows close behind in the second spot after another strong runner-up finish at Indianapolis.

Ford remains a presence in the top 10 with four entries, including a notable move for Joey Logano. Logano jumped into the fifth spot this week following his recent win and a solid third-place finish at the Brickyard. Meanwhile, Chevrolet faces a tougher stretch, with only Carson Hocevar representing the manufacturer in the current top 10.

Hendrick Motorsports drivers are noticeably absent from the top 10 rankings as the series heads into an off week. With the season set to resume at Iowa on August 9, teams are using this break to prepare for the final push toward the postseason. The competition remains tight as drivers look to secure their spots before the playoff field is locked in.
