Three ways to measure this race
| Official winner | TLS leader | Best ARP | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Driver | Shane Van Gisbergen (#9) | Austin Hill (#21) | Austin Hill (#21) |
| Finish | P1 | P2 | P2 |
| TLS points | 0 | 2254 | 2254 |
| ARP | N/A | 4.85 | 4.85 |
| Laps led | 31 | 4 | 4 |
Three different ways to measure a race — and they often point to different drivers.
Official winner — Shane Van Gisbergen (#9): where the car was at the checkered flag (P1). Led 31 laps with N/A average running position and 0 TLS points.
TLS leader — Austin Hill (#21): most position-weighted points across every scored lap (2,254 points). Finished P2 with 4 laps led and 4.85 ARP. TLS rewards running up front all afternoon, not only the final lap.
Best ARP — same as the TLS leader (4.85). The official winner ran a worse average position (N/A).
The checkered flag reflects who survived the final seconds. TLS reflects where drivers ran across the whole race. ARP tells you the typical running spot — but not who banked the most valuable laps.
