Three ways to measure this race

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 107 laps with 5.90 average running position and 14,074 TLS points.

TLS leader — Ryan Blaney (#12): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (14,192 points). Finished P3 with 39 laps led and 5.61 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.

Best ARP — same as the TLS leader (5.61). The official winner ran a worse average position (5.90).

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.
