How to watch NASCAR at Phoenix Raceway
The NASCAR Cup and Xfinity Series head to Phoenix Raceway this weekend. The track has a certain significance early in the 2022 calendar as it will later play host to the championship title-decider in November. When NASCAR last visited Phoenix, Kyle Larson took the checkered flag over Martin Truex Jr. to claim the 2021 NCS title. The Xfinity Series race ended in a spectacular photo finish with Daniel Hemric narrowly beating out Austin Cindric for his first race win, and the crown.
Here's how and where to watch all the on-track activity:
Saturday, March 12th

There 36 cars on the NASCAR Cup Series entry list with no open teams entered. Kevin Harvick is far and away the most successful driver at the one-mile track, winning nine races there. Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin and Joey Logano are the only other drivers with multiple victories at Phoenix, but all of their wins combined still don't add up to Harvick's dominance. However, the SHR driver has not won at Phoenix since 2018. Perhaps that will change on Sunday...
No.
