Breaking Down the Top 12: Who’s Ready to Roll the Dice in Vegas?

Hey everyone, Bryan here! We’re rolling into Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the Pennzoil 400, and let me tell you—this is where things start getting serious. We’ve seen four races so far, and the early season trends are taking shape. Some drivers are on fire, others are still figuring things out, and a few guys need a bit of Lady Luck on their side this weekend.

Las Vegas is a fast, 1.5-mile intermediate track, the bread and butter of the NASCAR schedule. These races reward consistency, strategy, and the ability to manage long green-flag runs. But here’s the thing—Vegas can be unpredictable, and we’ve seen late-race cautions flip everything upside down.

So, who’s got the best shot at hitting the jackpot in Sin City? Let’s break down the top 12 in the current standings and see how they’re shaping up for Sunday’s race!

Shriners Children’s 500 Race Recap: Christopher Bell’s Thrilling Victory at Phoenix Raceway

Hey NASCAR fans, Bryan here! If you were looking for an action-packed, edge-of-your-seat kind of race, the Shriners Children’s 500 at Phoenix Raceway delivered in a big way.

Throw in 10 cautions, 17 lead changes, and a wild two-lap sprint to the finish, and you’ve got yourself a race that had everyone on their feet.

At the end of the day, Christopher Bell proved once again why he’s one of the hottest drivers in the Cup Series right now, securing his third consecutive win of 2025—but it wasn’t easy. Let’s break it all down, lap by lap, and see how the action unfolded!
