NASCAR Cup Phoenix II

2023 NASCAR Phoenix finale schedule, entry list, and how to watch

It's time to head to Phoenix Raceway in Arizona and crown the 2023 NASCAR Cup, Xfinity, and Truck Series champions.

All three national divisions will be crowning a champion this weekend, so let's take a look at them all, starting with the Cup Series.

Ryan Blaney's victory at Martinsville solidified his surprise playoff run and locked him into the Championship 4 alongside Kyle Larson and Christopher Bell.

William Byron claimed the final transfer spot, 8pts over Denny Hamlin. Hamlin was eliminated along with Martin Truex Jr., Tyler Reddick, and Chris Buescher.

Larson is the only Cup champion still contention for the title this weekend, while both Byron and Blaney are making their Championship 4 debut.

Team Penske are the defending winners of the Phoenix finale with Logano leading Blaney in a 1-2 finish last November.

A dramatic Xfinity race at Martinsville saw Justin Allgaier win his way into the Championship 4 in a contact-filled photo finish. The Richard Childress Racing implosion saw both Sheldon Creed and Austin Hill eliminated, despite taking the white flag in complete control of the race.

Allgaier will battle for the championship against John-Hunter Nemechek, Cole Custer, and team-mate Sam Mayer.

The Truck Series will be the first to crown a champion with Carson Hocevar, Corey Heim, Ben Rhodes, and Grant Enfinger squaring off in the title-decider.

Hocevar will graduate to the Cup Series in 2024, while Enfinger's future remains uncertain with the news that GMS Racing will shut down at season's end.
