Change order of team chart

Hello, I just have a suggestion for the order of the team chart.

I would like to see it changed to be sorted by car numbers rather than team names to move it into line with F1, V8 Supercars, the Nationwide Series, and Truck Series charts.

Thanks

Please provide a reason for this. United States Man (talk) 04:47, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

To be honest, I think Teams would be the ideal way to sort the table. If we do it by numbers it would be a lot more confusing, as shown here:

No.	Team	Manufacturer	Race Driver	Crew Chief
1	Earnhardt Ganassi Racing	Chevrolet	Jamie McMurray	TBA
2	Penske Racing	Ford	Brad Keselowski	TBA
5	Hendrick Motorsports	Chevrolet	Kasey Kahne	TBA

Thing is, F1 and V8 Supercars have specific reasons for using those numbers. It's to indicate championship position. In those series, The numbers 1 and 2 are given to the first and second place driver. That's not the case in NASCAR.Gaeaman787 (talk) 19:17, 15 September 2012 (UTC)

I'd prefer sorting by car number, because entry lists in NASCAR have traditionally been sorted that way. 80.138.151.159 (talk) 15:25, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

TBA should be changed in the Furniture Row Racing Column to Kurt Busch JonnyFlynn3WesJohnson2 (talk) 22:53, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Thank you Zappa, I didn't have the time to do a proper contribution, but didn't want to lose the factoids. — Ched : ? 16:52, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

points scoring

Could someone add the points scoring scheme? Anttipng (talk) 20:38, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

I'd say it's a tad too big for inclusion in the article; particularly given the simplicity of the points scheme: Winner gets 46 (43 + 3 bonus), every position below scores one point less (2nd = 42, 3rd = 41, to 43rd = 1), anyone who leads a lap gets an extra point, whoever leads the most laps gets another point for the absolute maximum of 48.

Note

The Fall Phoenix race title it linked to the Atlanta race, just a heads up, cannot edit it. 184.162.151.9 (talk) 01:21, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Note 2

Thanks for above, and should we indicate notes about the penalties to Keselowski (25 pts), Logano (25 pts) and Truex (6 pts) since I've notices that their respective new point standings and points after the deductions have been done 184.162.151.9 (talk) 23:42, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Score Updating

We need to keep the points tallies updated on a regular basis. I know it's a bit early to expect results for Bristol, but we don't even have results for Michigan up yet — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bullet50000 (talk • contribs) 04:19, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

The results from Bristol came out as soon as the race was over. Please feel free to go right ahead and update it so you can say "we" to mean that you have helped next time. United States Man (talk) 04:24, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Victor Gonzalez, Jr. in table

Can someone fix Victor Gonzalez, Jr. in the Team Chart? It's in the Manufacturer column instead of the driver. Zappa O Mati 23:13, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
