With one race to decide the winner of NASCAR’s playoffs, this really is anyone’s game.
NASCAR’s Championship 4 of Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, Martin Truex Jr. and Joey Logano have had success at Homestead-Miami Speedway, but none of them have been dominant in victories.
The four drivers have combined for three wins in 52 combined races and not one has won over once. But, they all happen to be in contention differently as they have combined for 33 top-10 finishes.
So who will come out on top this weekend? It’s difficult to say. The fantastic money is on Busch or even Harvick, as the two drivers have combined to win 16 races this year, but Truex is the defending champion and has four wins of his own this year, including one on a 1.5-mile trail in Kentucky.
We completely believe someone in the Championship 4 will come out on the top and we’re choosing Busch to earn his second win in a row and first NASCAR championship since 2015.
The Ford EcoBoost 400 could be viewed Sunday at 3 p.m. ET on NBC.

Which NASCAR drivers are perfect for your dream lineup at Homestead-Miami?
Kyle Larson has the third best odds to succeed at Homestead-Miami Speedway and for good reason. In five career NASCAR races at the course he’s finished in the top 5 three times. In four trips to Miami in the Xfinity series he’s finished in the top 10 four times in four tries. Three of those attempts were in the top 3. He also has nine top-10 finishes on 1.5-mile tracks this year.
Brad Keselowski was last year’s Championship 4, but was not able to come away with a win. This year he is the guy to maintain one of the best four out of winning the race. Keselowski has two leading 5s and four top 10s in his career in Miami and has finished in the top 10 seven times in 10 1.5-mile races this past year.
