NASCAR returns to The Chase with a 10-race title run for 2026

NASCAR will revive The Chase as the 10-race championship format for the 2026 Cup Series, crowning the champion by total points across the final 10 races instead of a one-shot finale. The field is 16 drivers with a reseeded points system starting at 2,100 for the regular-season leader and 55-point wins to incentivize victories; the schedule remains unchanged, ending at Homestead-Miami on Nov. 8, following a 2025 Playoff Committee review.

Chase Returns: NASCAR Unifies Championship Format for 2026

NASCAR will bring back a Chase-style postseason in 2026 across the Cup Series, Xfinity (O’Reilly Auto Parts Series), and Craftsman Truck Series, using fixed playoff fields (Cup 16, Xfinity 12, Trucks 10) based on regular-season points, with no automatic berths for winners. A 55-point win bonus is introduced, regular-season champion gets a 25-point head start, and points are reset for the final Chase races (Cup 10, Xfinity 9, Trucks 7) to reward consistency while keeping the format simple and the finish decisive.

Germany Revamps Immigration Laws to Attract Skilled Workers.

Germany's Cabinet has approved a new bill aimed at attracting skilled laborers from non-EU countries by doubling the pre-COVID figures of 2019.

The bill includes changes such as lowering income requirements for EU Blue Cards, making it easier for workers to bring their families to Germany, and allowing individuals to work up to 20 hours a week while looking for long-term employment. The bill will still need to go through both houses of parliament.
