And there you have it folks. 75 years in the books. Excellent finale, by far the best one at Phoenix. Congratulations to Ryan Blaney for his first ever Cup Series championship. And GGs to Larson, Byron, and Bell. And of course, thank you, Kevin Harvick, for carrying the legacy for Dale and being one of the great characters of the sport, we will miss you. And thank you as well, Aric Almirola.

Great work Ryan. What a battle. Congratulations.

I am very happy that Ryan blaney won at phoenix and the championship. Thank you for the memories Kevin Harvick and Aric almirola! It was very good to see you guys one last ride. Thanks for the 75 years everyone!

Most likely that was their plan: have very slow cars during the season to save the best engines for the playoffs. That’s how Logano got it last year.

Happy to see Ryan Blaney take the championship!!!

Thanks to Kevin Harvick for all the years of great racing enjoy your new life in the booth for Fox

I've been a Ford guy since 1957. Soo good to see it as NASCAR champ again.👍

Well, Ford might have struggled early but they won all 3 championships, let that sink in

Im happy for Ryan.Blaney, grew up as a Big fan of his Dad(Dave) and Grandfather(Lou). He was solid when he had to be for Nascar's now way of a Championship. He wasnt that good alll season , but did what he needed to to get into the playoffs and then was solid. Congratulations

Congrats Blaney one heck of a job👍🏽

Been a fan since I seen you drive, Ryan. Congratulations on becoming a, Nascar Champion. ✌️❤️from Canada

Congrats to Blaney, Penske, Menards and Ford! A clean driver, and good looking car.

Awesome performance from the top 3

All 3 championship 4s featured 2 Chevys, a Ford and a Toyota. All 3 Fords won the championship. And all 3 Toyotas ended up smashed.

Blaney was extremely impressive, Awesome racing by all drivers NASCAR at its best!!!

I just knew it from the start of this year that Ryan Blaney would be the champion. He had the speed last year, but just couldn't put it together to win. He really earned it. While I'm not really a Blaney fan, still congrats to him, he earned it!

The last lap, I caught. I was working at Phoenix the entire weekend. Was an absolute blast to see something I have only seen on TV.

Harvick leading laps in his final race. A win would've been awesome, but the old man showed 'em today that he's still got it!

Blaney's first championship victory can you believe!!!!!!!!!!!!!

congratulations Ryan blaney 🎉❤

As a Ford fan for 54 years, & counting, this was almost as thrilling as the finish between Bill & Alan! Both driving Fords,Bill won the race,Alan won the championship by leading the most laps! Congratulations Ryan,y'all earned this championship! I'm sorry Kevin & Aric didn't have better years. Now we can't say,looking forward to next season, but you sure gave us some damned good years to be proud of y'all!❤

So happy Blaney won!!!❤❤❤❤

YES!!! CONGRATULATIONS Ryan Blaney, on your championship! As someone who races at Sharon Speedway, and grew up watching all of the Blaneys, this is great!

Congratulations Roger

Congratulations to you Ryan 🎉 Nascar ⚡🏁🏆 Cup Champion 🏆🏁⚡ and your Team💥

Blaney never had the best pit crew all year. But what's crazy is they made no mistakes today and had decent times but it still wasn't enough. Literally 1 second slower set them back spots. Crazy how competitive this race was.

Great race. Congrats to Blaney.

That dude drove the shit outta that car today, and clearly deserved to win! Tries to race like a gentleman, but every man has his limits. Bringing heart back into the sport!

Didn’t have a Byron winning the 1st and 75th championship, but we do have someone with the initials RB winning the 1st and 75th, congrats Blaney!

YEEESSS, I CALLED IT. I WAS RIGHT!!! RYAN BLANEY IS A CUP SERIES CHAMPION What a race for the cup today. The three contenders were very close to each other, i had no idea who would win at the end. But in the end, congrats Ryan Blaney for the well deserved title.

I was wanting #24 taking that championship . But Blaney is good too. Stay humble little fella. Emotions are necessary in these moments

There for a while, I thought Blaney was going to lose his patience with Chastain and make a horrible mistake. Glad he kept his composure and won the championship. 🎉

Congrats to Ryan!! Hell of a race! And cheers to Kyle Larson my man, you couldn't get over the hump but you had a great year too still proud!! And to William Byron and Christopher Bell both had a great year too!

Go No. 12 🎉

Way to go Blaney😂

Congrats Ryan!!!!

What about that Ford horsepower! Swept championship weekend

I pennsylvania kid who grew up around dirt won the nascar cup series title. .. I wouldn't of wanted it no other way,.. no one deserves it more imo.. congrats too Dave too, I've watched him run in nascar as a child but my pap and uncles watched him in his sprints cars before he ever made it on asphalt, and then as I got older I have got too watch dave race at his dirt track multiple times. This might be my favorite nascar moment

What a season

Well deserved Champion 🏆!!!

Congratulations, Blaney!!!

Ryan Blaney went from not winning a single race all season last year to NASCAR Cup Series champion, I mean if that doesn't make you a fan of this dude I don't know what will

Not Joey, but Awesome Job to Team 12 and Penske for taking away the championship from Joe Gibbs and Rick Hendrick. Only thing better would have been KB and RCR win the championship

Probably the best Nascar season in the last 10 years.

I can’t help but agree with you. There were clear cut regular season favorites and then there were underdogs. These playoffs were probably the most competitive and exciting ones in the history of this format. 14 of the 16 playoff drivers were super competitive and looked like they could all fight for the round of 8 at least. And so many of them showed up and fought for wins at some point. And this finale was incredible. I feel bad for Bell because he looked like he had a shot. Chastain was great in this story too, really testing the patience of our protagonists!

@@ryanmorrison3699 Chastain didn't have a good year, but I don't care if he wins or loses tbh. A lot of the races were good this year, and then having the Chicago race with Van Ginsenbuger racing a few races just made everything that much better. And like you said, as close as the playoffs racers were I think it goes into 2024 with a lot of momentum. Unfortunately the first race is the Coliseum which I absolutely hate.

@@RW-zh7kl Yeah, the Clash isn’t great. I thought it was cool the first year, but now it’s dumb. I absolutely loathe the mid-race concerts and the crowd. Just a bunch of spoiled millennials taking selfies for social status. They’re not real fans. They ought to move the Clash to a real racing market like the Nashville Fairgrounds. And I disagree about Chastain. Top ten in points and two wins, both of which were dominating performances. Last year, his two wins were chaotic flukes where he led only the last lap. Sure, he didn’t make the championship 4, but I think it was still a good season.

Let's be honest here Ford really turned it up last half of season especially blaney.

I was expecting Byron, but hey the 12 broke his winless streak 6 months ago at the Coke 600 and look at how things turned out, well done Ryan Blaney. Also random fact the fans already noticed, the last time someone won the Cup Series championship and not the race was Jimmie Johnson back in 2013 it’s been a decade since the last time someone won the Cup Series championship and not the race. So, feel old yet?

Why didn’t chastain have this fast of a car all year

Can't stand to watch , I want to go to sleep .NASCAR is a real drag .

4 legitimate champions in the past 10 seasons. Format is terrible.

😂😂 I bet 100$ on him Thanks Ryan 500$ in the pocket 😊
