Four Chase drivers will fight for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship in the season finale Sunday at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Bing returns for the season-ending event with Championship 4 predictions, determining who has the best chance at Victory Lane of Chase contenders Kevin Harvick, Jeff Gordon, Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr.

Harvick remains Bing Predicts’ favorite to win the title, having been their predicted winner since the beginning of the Chase. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver’s 2015 consistency and recent finishes at Homestead — he won at the Florida track last season to clinch the title — bode well for the reigning series champion.

Joe Gibbs Racing‘s Busch retains his spot as Bing Predicts’ No. 2 pick. While Busch’s average finish of 23.1 at Homestead hurts his chances, his winning record at similar tracks (13 wins at tracks 1-to-2 miles in length) and improved performances since the opening round of the Chase keep him at Bing’s No. 2.

Bing acknowledges Gordon’s strong final season and Truex’s impressive performance as the dark horse, but calculates that Harvick’s and Busch’s recent finishes ultimately play in their favor for the title.

The finale will take place on Sunday, Nov. 22 at 3 p.m. ET (NBC, MRN, SiriusXM) at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
