Joey Logano won the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series Championship at Phoenix Raceway on Sunday. Heres a look at the final race.
Logano lost on the last run to Chase Elliott in 2020, so this was his revenge race. Though, Elliot didn’t put up much of a fight., four drivers set out to battle for the 2022 Cup Series championship crown – Logan, Elliott, Ross Chastain and Christopher Bell – and Logano proved victorious.
The 312-lap race’s first stage started with everyone trailing Logano, who had the advantage of the first pit stall. Logano sat at the top of the leaderboard after the first 60 laps. Emotions were already high, especially for Bell, considering the devastating news about Coy Gibbs, announced right before the race.
It is with great sorrow that Joe Gibbs Racing confirms that Coy Gibbs went to be with the Lord in his sleep last night. The family appreciates all the thoughts and prayers and asks for privacy at this time.Logano continued to dominate in the second stage, with his three other Championship 4 competitors fairly far behind him, until Ryan Blaney threatened Logano’s first-place spot, seeking his first win of the season.
Soon after, Logano fell to third and Chastain, who has two wins this season , crept up to fifth and Bell to eighth. After more than halfway, it was clear Elliott wasn’t catching up.
