NASCAR 2022: What does the points table look like after NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race at Phoenix Raceway?

The 36 races, including the season finale race, have already taken place in the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series season. Team Penske driver Joey Logano captured his second Cup Series title after winning the NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race at Phoenix Raceway on Sunday (November 6).

Logano had a perfect day starting from the pole, sweeping the Stage 1 win, and stayed in P2 in Stage 2 in dominant fashion. He led a race-high 187 laps and drove away his #22 Ford from Ryan Blaney to cross the checkered flag in P1.

With Sunday’s victory, Logano became the new Cup Series champion and ended his phenomenal 2022 season in style. He gained 40 points and holds the top spot in the Cup Series standings with 5040 points, four wins, and 11 top-10 finishes.

Trackhouse Racing driver Ross Chastain was the only title contender to challenge Logano for the win in the closing laps, but it wasn’t enough to beat him. He crossed the finish line in third place and gained 34 points to cap off a career-best second finish in the Cup Series final standings.

He is followed by Christopher Bell (5027 points), Chase Elliott (5009 points), and Denny Hamlin (2379 points) completing the top-five drivers in the standings. 2021 cup champion Kyle Larson finished seventh in the standings with 2354 points.
