This weekend marks the final Sprint Cup Series race in the eight-driver Eliminator Round before the Chase field dwindles to four. Here are the scenarios for clinching a spot in the Championship 4 this Sunday at Phoenix International Raceway during the Quicken Loans Race for Heroes 500 (2:30 p.m. ET, NBC, MRN, SiriusXM).
Jeff Gordon has already clinched a spot in the Championship 4.
Regardless of the finish of any other drivers
Kyle Busch will clinch with a finish of 3rd or better; 4th and at least one lap led; or 5th and most laps led.
Kevin Harvick will clinch with a finish of 2nd or better; 3rd and at least one lap led; or 4th and most laps led.
