With elimination-style playoffs in all of its top three national touring series this year, NASCAR has done the sensible thing, dropping the nomenclature from the four rounds of the Chase for the Sprint Cup in favor of more traditional Round of 16, etc.
“Yes, we have removed the Round names from the #Chase, including #NASCAR Sprint Cup,” tweeted David Higdon, vice president, NASCAR Integrated Marketing Communications. “Now: Round of 16, Round of 12, Round of 8, Championship Round.”
