Last week at Charlotte we got to see another close Chase Briscoe finish, but this time he barely held on to win one of the closest finishes in Charlotte history. Next up, we head to the former Championship racetrack where we’ll see if Chase Briscoe can continue his hot streak, Phoenix. Down below you will find different statistics for active drivers and Next Gen races of the NASCAR Cup series here at Phoenix Raceway ranging from Most Wins to Best Average Finishes by starting position in the Next Gen era. So read and enjoy these fun fact track stats!
In this post you will only find active and Next Gen stats, if you are looking for all-time stats check out my previous article All-Time Cup Track Stats: Phoenix.
Active means any driver who started a race in the 2026 Cup Series season.
