It’s always bittersweet to write the final article of the season, but it’s been a great year. Thank you everyone for the support this season. I can’t believe I’ve been doing the NASCAR package at RotoGrinders for 8 seasons now, your support means the World to me.

This weekend, we head to Phoenix Raceway for the NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race. The race is Sunday at 3pm ET on NBC. On Sunday, William Byron, Ryan Blaney, Joey Logano, and Tyler Reddick will fight to win the 2024 Championship. We had a 50-minute practice on Friday, and Goodyear brought a new tire again this weekend. There was fall off on the long run in practice, which could potentially lead to tires mattering on Sunday. I’ll be using practice data, recent Phoenix data, short flat track data, recent 2024 speed, and a few other things when building lineups this weekend.

The stages are 60, 125, and 127, which is a total of 312 laps. With 312 laps, we’re looking at 31.2 laps led points, and 31.2 laps completed points on FanDuel. On DraftKings, we’re looking at 140.4 fastest lap points and 78 laps led points. With 218.4 potential dominator points, we’re looking for 2 to 3 dominators on most lineups this weekend. There have been at least 2 dominators in 10 straight races here, and the pole sitter has been one of them in 8 of the last 10.
