Predicting which NASCAR driver wins the 2024 Xfinity Series championship

Which NASCAR driver will win the 2024 Xfinity Series championship? Check out who will raise the Xfinity Series trophy at Phoenix Raceway!

The NASCAR Xfinity Series will decide a champion at Phoenix Raceway on Saturday evening. Cole Custer, Justin Allgaier, A.J. Allmendinger, and Austin Hill all looked to raise the trophy at the end of the 2024 NASCAR season. However, which NASCAR veteran will come out on top at Phoenix? It will be a very special day for this driver, who has yet to win an Xfinity Series title.

Allgaier will win the 2024 Xfinity Series championship, earning his first career title in NASCAR’s top levels. The driver of the No. 7 car has tried to become an Xfinity Series champion for so long, and his wishes will be granted on Saturday. Allgaier will have an intense battle with defending champion Cole Custer as Stewart-Haas Racing comes up short of a storybook ending.

Hill and Allmendinger will have speed, but not enough to compete with Allgaier and Custer. In March, Allgaier was leading at Phoenix before he blew a tire in the closing laps. Now, the JR Motorsports driver will earn redemption in the best way possible as he becomes an Xfinity Series champion for the first time in his career.

Stewart-Haas Racing looks for storybook ending in final NASCAR weekend

Stewart-Haas Racing is looking for a storybook ending in its final NASCAR weekend before it shuts down following the 2024 season.

[autotag]Stewart-Haas Racing[/autotag] will shut down after the 2024 NASCAR season, but there is one more opportunity to win a championship. Cole Custer, the driver of the No. 00 Xfinity car, will look to defend his NASCAR Xfinity Series championship at Phoenix Raceway this weekend. Custer is the only driver from the organization with a shot at winning a NASCAR title.

It has been a long journey for Stewart-Haas Racing, but Phoenix will officially mark the end of a successful NASCAR tenure. The organization has two NASCAR Cup Series championships and hopes to make it two Xfinity Series titles this weekend. Meanwhile, the Cup Series drivers hope to send Stewart-Haas Racing off with one final victory.

Briscoe’s previous win before the 2024 Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway was the spring race at Phoenix in 2022. How poetic would it be if the No. 14 car entered victory lane for the last time at Phoenix? Stewart-Haas Racing will be missed by so many in NASCAR; however, the final chapter of the final book isn’t complete just yet.

NASCAR officially sets the Championship 4 in all three series for 2024

NASCAR has officially set the Championship 4 in all three levels for the 2024 season. Check out who has a chance at a NASCAR championship!

NASCAR has officially set the Championship 4 in all three levels for the 2024 season, at least for now. Who knows what might come from NASCAR’s rulings following its investigation at Martinsville Speedway, but until that point, the 12 drivers fighting for a championship have been determined. So, who will have an opportunity to be a NASCAR champion in 2024?

In the Cup Series, the No. 12 of Ryan Blaney, No. 22 of Joey Logano, No. 24 of William Byron, and No. 45 of Tyler Reddick will fight for a title. Blaney is looking for his second title while Logano is in search of his third with Team Penske. Meanwhile, Byron and Reddick want to hoist the trophy for the first time in their Cup Series careers.

The Xfinity Series features four veteran drivers with the No. 00 of Cole Custer, No. 7 of Justin Allgaier, No. 16 of A.J. Allmendinger, and No. 21 of Austin Hill. Every driver is searching for their first Xfinity Series championship, outside of Custer, who is looking for his second title and to send Stewart-Haas Racing off with a storybook ending.

Finally, the Truck Series will have the No. 9 of Grant Enfinger, No. 11 of Corey Heim, No. 19 of Christian Eckes, and No. 98 of Ty Majeski. All four drivers have never won a Truck Series championship, and one will have an opportunity to become a NASCAR champion for the first time as they look to advance their careers.

NASCAR has been active since February, but it all ends this weekend at Phoenix Raceway. Three drivers will become NASCAR champions, while the others look forward to next year. The time has come for NASCAR to determine three winners, and everything is on the line.
