The summer sports are coming to an end. All that is left is the end to the Formula One season. NASCAR crowned their 2023 champion last night. Team Penske’s Ryan Blaney won his first Cup Championship at Phoenix Raceway, by finishing second. All he had to do was finish ahead of the other three still alive for the championship – Christopher Bell, Kyle Larson and William Byron. Bell went out early when he blew a brake rotor and crashed on Lap 108. Ross Chastain won the race, but Blaney won the championship by finishing ahead of Larson (third) and Byron (fourth). It was a nice exclamation point to a long season.
