LOGANO SAID IT: “I wanted to beat the other guys, so yeah. It’s all about beating the other ones and we did that, so that’s a good start. I wish we were on the pole, but we were close enough to see it, so I think we’re in good shape. I don’t know where the other ones ended up, but I know we’re in front of them.”
TEAM PENSKE AT PHOENIX: Both Ryan Blaney and Joey Logano have incredibly strong records at the one-mile oval. Since 2022, Blaney has an average finish of third, while Logano has three prior victories in Phoenix – including his championship-clinching win in 2022. Blaney’s performance in 2023 at the Arizona track earned him his first Cup Series title. In total, Team Penske has 10 wins at the facility across the Cup Series (4) and NASCAR Xfinity Series (6).
