Chastain wins the race as Blaney claims 2023 NASCAR Cup title
Chastain dominated the race, leading for 157 laps and ultimately winning, despite being eliminated early in the Cup playoffs.
Blaney and Larson battled for the runner-up position, which would determine the championship winner, with Blaney coming out on top.
This is the first time since the current playoff format debuted in 2014 that the champion did not win the season finale.
Blaney’s victory gave team owner Roger Penske back-to-back Cup titles, following Joey Logano’s win last season.
Bell, another title contender, was knocked out of contention when he crashed on Lap 108.
