Larson claims second Cup title at Phoenix

Kyle Larson clinched his second Cup Series championship at Phoenix Raceway, rallying from a flat tire and a two-lap deficit to finish third on an overtime restart. Denny Hamlin led 208 of 312 laps and was three laps from the crown before a late caution for William Byron’s wall hit derailed his bid; he finished sixth. Ryan Blaney won the race over Brad Keselowski. Larson never led a lap and became the first champion of the elimination era to secure the title without leading the finale and without a playoff win.
