NASCAR In Phoenix: Chase Race Heats Up In The Desert

This weekend brings us one of the most important Chase races ever, with three drivers competing for the championship over the final two races.

The Chase historically hasn’t been this close heading into the final two events, and the 10-race playoff is shaping up to be as good – or better – than the first Chase in 2004.

Will Denny Hamlin pull away? Can Jimmie Johnson retake the points lead? Can Kevin Harvick stay in this thing?

Follow along with all the news, updates and analysis from the track. And don’t forget our live race chat on Sunday, where you can hang out with other fans.
