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

Official winner — William Byron (#24): where the car was at the checkered flag (P1). Led 24 laps with 13.24 average running position and 4,580 TLS points.

TLS leader — Joey Logano (#22): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (5,303 points). Finished P27 with 36 laps led and 7.65 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.

Best ARP — Kyle Busch (#18): lowest average running position (6.59). Finished P33 with 5,264 TLS points and 31 laps led. ARP is an average across all laps — a driver can run near the front all day yet score fewer TLS points if they led fewer laps, completed fewer laps, or lost ground late while keeping a strong average.

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.
