Richard Childress Racing driver Kyle Busch had a rather anonymous race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. As the NASCAR Cup Series visited the famed Brickyard for the third last event of the 2023 regular season, the #8 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 driver was seen finishing towards the back of the pack.
Firmly set in the postseason which is seeing battles heat up amongst drivers sitting around the qualification bubble, Busch is one driver who does not need to worry about the same.
Having taken a trip to victory lane on three different occasions over the year, with his most recent one coming in St. Louis, the Las Vegas, Nevada driver is one of the confirmed entries into the playoffs this season.
Trying to round off his regular season on a high, Kyle Busch has been a proficient driver on the twists and turns of a road course. However, the Indy Road Course layout saw Busch suffer from issues with his car during the Verizon 200 at The Brickyard, despite having a decent pace in the #8 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1.

Busch summed up his feelings after the 200-mile-long event in an official Instagram post, writing:
"We had the speed all day and we had good track position. Unfortunately we had a couple of issues that took us out of the hunt. P.36 for the day. Bummed."
Kyle Busch currently sits in P11 on the driver's standings table. He has 660 points to his name and a guaranteed berth in the postseason playoffs this year.
