Three ways to measure this race
| Official winner | TLS leader | Best ARP | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Driver | Ryan Blaney (#12) | William Byron (P) (#24) | William Byron (P) (#24) |
| Finish | P1 | P6 | P6 |
| TLS points | 16695 | 17359 | 17359 |
| ARP | 4.68 | 3.35 | 3.35 |
| Laps led | 32 | 51 | 51 |
Three different ways to measure a race — and they often point to different drivers.
Official winner — Ryan Blaney (#12): where the car was at the checkered flag (P1). Led 32 laps with 4.68 average running position and 16,695 TLS points.
TLS leader — William Byron (P) (#24): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (17,359 points). Finished P6 with 51 laps led and 3.35 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.
Best ARP — same as the TLS leader (3.35). The official winner ran a worse average position (4.68).
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.
