Joey Logano's Unexpected Comeback: From Elimination to Championship Contender

Las Vegas Motor Speedway, USATue Oct 22 2024
Joey Logano, often seen as an underdog, has defied expectations by securing a spot in the Championship 4. After being eliminated from the playoffs, a disqualification gave him another chance. He grabbed it, winning the South Point 400 and now has a 25% shot at the title. Denny Hamlin, a veteran driver, wasn't optimistic about Logano's chances at Las Vegas. He thought Logano would struggle, but Logano proved him wrong with a smart fuel-saving strategy. Logano has made the Championship 4 more times than any other driver since 2014. He's no stranger to the track at Las Vegas, having won there before. Denny Hamlin, on the other hand, had a rough day at the South Point 400. He struggled to keep up and had poor pit stops. He's now in a tough spot, sitting 27 points below the cutline. But with two weeks to prepare for Phoenix, Logano isn't likely to be underestimated again.
