Three ways to measure this race
| Official winner | TLS leader | Best ARP | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Driver | AJ Allmendinger (#16) | Ty Gibbs (P) (#54) | Ty Gibbs (P) (#54) |
| Finish | P1 | P2 | P2 |
| TLS points | 2527 | 2682 | 2682 |
| ARP | 4.38 | 2.26 | 2.26 |
| Laps led | 25 | 24 | 24 |
Three different ways to measure a race — and they often point to different drivers.
Official winner — AJ Allmendinger (#16): where the car was at the checkered flag (P1). Led 25 laps with 4.38 average running position and 2,527 TLS points.
TLS leader — Ty Gibbs (P) (#54): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (2,682 points). Finished P2 with 24 laps led and 2.26 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.
Best ARP — same as the TLS leader (2.26). The official winner ran a worse average position (4.38).
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.
