Three different ways to measure a race — and they often point to different drivers.

Official winner — Brad Keselowski (#2): where the car was at the checkered flag (P1). Led 21 laps with 11.07 average running position and 12,150 TLS points.

TLS leader — Martin Truex Jr. (#19): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (15,519 points). Finished P6 with 87 laps led and 2.78 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.

Best ARP — same as the TLS leader (2.78). The official winner ran a worse average position (11.07).

The checkered flag reflects who survived the final seconds. TLS reflects where drivers ran across the whole race. ARP tells you the typical running spot — but not who banked the most valuable laps.
