Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series reace in Mexico City delivered quite a bit of rain early, leading to some early movement in the field that shook up Stage 1. In a day that delivered plenty of surprises, there’s plenty of movement among the NASCAR points leaders today.

The NASCAR Cup and Xfinity series will hold consecutive qualifying sessions Saturday at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, which then will play host to back-to-back races on its 15-turn, 2.42-mile layout.
