NASCAR Cup Series

Joey Logano launched his way to the top of the heap in Coors Light Pole Qualifying on Friday at Phoenix Raceway, claiming the first starting spot for Sunday's Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series event.

MARTIN TRUEX JR, No. 78 Bass Pro Shops / Tracker Boats Toyota Camry, Furniture Row Racing - How did you celebrate that victory there in Sin City? "Didn't have a whole lot of time to celebrate."

Most race weekends, a driver winning the race is the top story. But on some weekends, the race win gets buried under other events.

Joey Logano met with media members Friday ahead of NASCAR Monster Energy Cup Series qualifying, and as expected, fielded more questions about last weekend’s altercation with Kyle Busch at Las Vegas.

Ryan Blaney, driver of the No. 21 Motorcraft Quick Lane Ford Fusion, met with media members at Phoenix Raceway prior to qualifying Friday afternoon. Blaney spoke about numerous topics, including the upcoming race weekend.

KYLE LARSON, NO. 42 CREDIT ONE BANK CHEVROLET SS, met with members of the media at Phoenix International Raceway and discussed the strong start to his season, the implications of the Joey Logano/Kyle Busch scuffle last week at Las Vegas, his thoughts on the new stage format and many other topics.

Chase Elliott topped the chart in the first Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series practice at Phoenix International Raceway.

DANIEL SUÁREZ, No. 19 ARRIS Toyota Camry, Joe Gibbs Racing - Talk a little bit about your experience and transition up to the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series at Phoenix. “Overall, Phoenix is one of those places that doesn't matter which series I'm going in, I feel very comfortable going."

NASCAR heads to Phoenix Raceway this weekend as the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series and XFINITY Series compete at the one-mile oval. Saturday’s XFINITY Series DC Solar 200 will be broadcast at 4 p.m. on FOX. The Cup Series Camping World 500 will be televised on FOX at 3:30 p.m. Sunday.

The NASCAR Camping World 500 race weekend at Phoenix Raceway is all about fast cars and the state of Arizona. It seems only appropriate that six members from the cast of the upcoming movie “Car Dogs” will be on hand this weekend to serve as honorary race officials for Sunday’s Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Camping World 500, which starts at 12:30 p.m., PT.
