NASCAR weekend schedule for Phoenix Raceway

6D4APZ7HQMn8
Christopher Bell’s crew chief Adam Stevens talks about the victory in Martinsville, how the team has translated flashes of speed into victories in 2022, what’s next in the Championship 4 and more.

Four drivers -- two former champions and two newcomers to these proceedings -- will race for the NASCAR Cup Series championship Sunday at Phoenix Raceway (3 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock).

Joey Logano won the title in 2018, and Chase Elliott was king in 2020. Christopher Bell and Ross Chastain are in the Championship 4 for the first time.

Logano and Elliott have won races at Phoenix; Chastain and Bell have not.

Also scheduled at Phoenix this weekend are championship races for the Xfinity Series (6 p.m. ET Saturday, USA Network) and the Camping World Truck Series (10 p.m. ET Friday, FS1).
