NASCAR Cup Series 2025: Phoenix starting lineup with penalties applied

The 2025 NASCAR Cup Series continues today (Sunday, March 9) with the starting lineup for the Shriners Children's 500 at Phoenix Raceway now fully set.

After a road course race at COTA last weekend, it is very much back to more familiar territory this time around, with Phoenix Raceway a 1-mile, low-banked tri-oval, with eight degrees banking in turns one and two, and 11 degrees banking in turns three and four.

The circuit provided a thrilling qualifying session on Saturday night, with William Byron snatching pole from 2024 champion Joey Logano on the very last lap of the session. As a result, Byron starts today's race at Phoenix on pole, with the #22 of Logano alongside him.

Behind the front row, the order looks quite mixed up, with the likes of Carson Hocevar, Josh Berry and Erik Jones rounding out the top five and some very established names a lot further down the field.

With all that said, and 312 laps of exciting action to look forward to, let's look at today's starting lineup in full, including any overnight penalties that may or may not have been applied.
