Kyle Busch is eligible to compete for the NASCAR championship despite missing the first 11 races this season. NASCAR announced Wednesday it has granted Busch a waiver that would allow the Joe Gibbs Racing star to qualify for the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. ''In my mind, it was intended for someone in my situation that has a car, sponsor and team that was set to run the entire year for a championship.'' NASCAR requires drivers to start every points race to be eligible for the Chase. Busch has been sidelined since a Feb. 21 crash in the Xfinity Series opener in which he broke his right leg and left foot in an accident that spurred safety reviews throughout NASCAR.
