Three ways to measure this race
| Official winner | TLS leader | Best ARP | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Driver | William Byron (#24) | Brad Keselowski (#6) | Brad Keselowski (#6) |
| Finish | P1 | P3 | P3 |
| TLS points | 11296 | 11928 | 11928 |
| ARP | 5.82 | 4.02 | 4.02 |
| Laps led | 141 | 68 | 68 |
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 141 laps with 5.82 average running position and 11,296 TLS points.
TLS leader — Brad Keselowski (#6): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (11,928 points). Finished P3 with 68 laps led and 4.02 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.
Best ARP — same as the TLS leader (4.02). The official winner ran a worse average position (5.82).
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.
