1951 NASCAR Cup Series

Champion: Herb Thomas

Driver standings

Fonty Flock led on points, but the 1951 title went to Herb Thomas. Championships in this era were not decided by the points table alone (playoff/chase formats, dropped scores, or a different points system), so the standings order below is not the championship order.
