Three ways to measure this race
| Official winner | TLS leader | Best ARP | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Driver | Austin Dillon (#3) | Joey Logano (#22) | Christopher Bell (#20) |
| Finish | P1 | P12 | P36 |
| TLS points | 3499 | 4817 | 1053 |
| ARP | 16.27 | 7.70 | 4.03 |
| Laps led | 10 | 14 | 0 |
Three different ways to measure a race — and they often point to different drivers.
Official winner — Austin Dillon (#3): where the car was at the checkered flag (P1). Led 10 laps with 16.27 average running position and 3,499 TLS points.
TLS leader — Joey Logano (#22): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (4,817 points). Finished P12 with 14 laps led and 7.70 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.
Best ARP — Christopher Bell (#20): lowest average running position (4.03). Finished P36 with 1,053 TLS points and 0 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.
