Alex Bowman Leaves Phoenix With His Best Finish At The Site Since 2016
Alex Bowman of Hendrick Motorsports ended Sunday's Shriners Children's 500 in the seventh position after an up-and-down day. Bowman began the race from the 32nd position, and after an early pit stop, he made up some ground and placed 17th by the end of the first stage. In the second stage, Bowman got involved in a multi-car accident and obtained some damage, but he could continue. The No. 48 Chevrolet driver would end the second stage in the 16th position, failing to score stage points for the entire day. In the final stage, Bowman shuffled his position up and down, running as high as third by lap 217 or falling back towards the back half of the top 20 during pit stops. Bowman eventually would take option tires during the final stage, allowing him to pass other cars and make it to the top 10. After the race's final restart, Bowman ended the race inside the top 10 with a finish of seventh, his highest at Phoenix since 2016.
