Joey Logano is hungry for a second championship, which may come tomorrow at Phoenix. The Team Penske driver earned a major advantage today in qualifying by earning pole position. Logano also gets first choice of his pit stall for tomorrow's race, which may be just as important. He will also have a teammate as his wingman as Ryan Blaney starts on the outside of the front row.

Chase Elliott is also seeking his second title, but the 2020 champ will start from the 5th position tomorrow. His Hendrick Motorsports teammate Kyle Larson starts just ahead of him in 4th. The defending series champion is not one of the four drivers competing for the driver’s championship tomorrow, but he is in contention for the owner’s championship.

While Logano and Elliott will start towards the front of the pack tomorrow, Bell and Chastain will have their hands full coming from deeper in the field. Both drivers have struggled to find speed during practice yesterday and qualifying today, but they remain optimistic that their cars will improve when track conditions change during the race. Bell starts 17th and Chastain rolls off in 25th position.

The only Toyota inside the top 11 in qualifying was Ty Gibbs, who will start 10th for 23XI Racing. Gibbs earned pole position earlier in the day for this evening's Xfinity Series race, where he is aiming to win the championship. None of the Stewart Haas Racing drivers are eligible for the championship but three of their four cars qualified inside the top-nine today. Kevin Harvick (7th) has won nine times at Phoenix.

With practice and qualifying in the books, the only thing left to do is race. For the final time this season, the Cup Series will race on Sunday and determine the champion of the 2022 season. Television coverage begins at 3 PM ET on NBC, with a 3:37 green flag at Phoenix Raceway.
