No favorite among NASCAR championship 4 ahead of finale

AVONDALE, Ariz. — (AP) — The long and unpredictable NASCAR season comes to an end Sunday with a championship race fitting for a year that saw unprecedented parity and never a clear title favorite. Logano won in 2018 and Elliott won in 2020 in the first of back-to-back Hendrick Motorsports championships. And experience may matter: Logano won the pole in Saturday qualifying, while Elliott was fourth. If it takes a victory to win, Bell proved he can do it twice, including last week's dramatic win at Martinsville to save his season. And since the winner-take-all format was established in 2014, the champion has won the final race to claim the Cup.

AVONDALE, Ariz. — (AP) — Ross Chastain skyrocketed to motorsports infamy for wall-riding his way into NASCAR's championship race with a video-game style move that has overshadowed the finale and his fellow title contenders. With that comes a ton of pressure on the eighth-generation Florida watermelon farmer and journeyman NASCAR driver who once took a side gig driving a motorhome to races just to earn extra cash. Christopher Bell has been red-hot with two walk-off wins in a pair of playoff elimination races to advance to his first championship. NASCAR's most popular driver won the regular-season crown and led the Cup standings most of the year. “I think you look at the Cup Series specifically, there’s a youth movement in NASCAR,” NASCAR President Steve Phelps said.

Ross Chastain's Martinsville video game move was incredible. How does NASCAR stop it from happening again?

How does NASCAR prevent Ross Chastain’s incredible move at Martinsville from becoming the norm? Make no mistake, the video game move that Chastain executed at full-throttle to gain five spots on the last lap was phenomenal. He knew on the final lap of the race that he had fewer points than Denny Hamlin did for the fourth and final spot in the final round of the playoffs. After the race, Chastain said that he remembered doing the move in EA Sports’ NASCAR video games as a kid and always wondered if it would work. The final lap at Martinsville and other tracks can’t devolve into drivers trying to do what Chastain did on Sunday.

HOMESTEAD, Fla. — (AP) — Bubba Wallace is missing Sunday’s NASCAR race, and that’s evidently not his only sanction after losing his cool in Las Vegas last weekend. Custer and his crew chief, Mike Shiplett, were both fined $100,000 after NASCAR determined Custer’s slowdown was deliberate.

He’ll be in the team garage, and Logano said he doesn’t think Wallace owes his fellow drivers an explanation.

LAS VEGAS — (AP) — Bubba Wallace tried to fight reigning NASCAR champion Kyle Larson after a crash Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway that also collected title contender Christopher Bell. The incident began when Larson attempted a three-wide pass — Kevin Harvick in the middle dropped out of the bunch — and Larson slid up the track against Wallace. When Wallace didn't lift to give Larson any room, Larson used his Chevrolet to shove Wallace's Toyota into the wall. Wallace claimed he didn't deliberately wreck Larson, but both Larson and Bell viewed it as clear retaliation.
