Three ways to measure this race

Official winner TLS leader Best ARP
Driver Ryan Blaney (#12) Tyler Reddick (#45) Tyler Reddick (#45)
Finish P1 P8 P8
TLS points 29 36 36
ARP 8.00 1.00 1.00
Laps led 115 0 0

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 115 laps with 8.00 average running position and 29 TLS points.

TLS leader — Tyler Reddick (#45): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (36 points). Finished P8 with 0 laps led and 1.00 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.

Best ARP — same as the TLS leader (1.00). The official winner ran a worse average position (8.00).

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.
