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 115 laps with 6.83 average running position and 17,119 TLS points.

TLS leader — Chase Elliott (#9): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (18,311 points). Finished P22 with 88 laps led and 4.45 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.

Best ARP — Ryan Blaney (#12): lowest average running position (2.53). Finished P40 with 7,694 TLS points and 60 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.
