Fast and flat. Photo finishes. The dogleg.
Phoenix Raceway has one of the most interesting, unique layouts on the NASCAR circuit. The 1-mile track in the desert is the site of this weekend’s Round of 8 finale, so stakes are especially high with a spot in the Championship 4 on the line.
Kevin Harvick, the all-time leader at the track with eight Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series wins, and Ryan Newman, the most recent winner at the track, give us clues on how to pull off a Phoenix victory.
Harvick already has clinched a spot in the Championship 4, but five drivers are fighting for one final spot — so take note, Ryan Blaney, Chase Elliott, Denny Hamlin, Jimmie Johnson and Brad Keselowski.
