Joey Logano reveals his best-ever NASCAR race till date

The defending NASCAR Cup Series champion Joey Logano has revealed the best race he has ever driven in during his 15-year-long illustrious career.

Logano made his Cup debut in 2008. Since the 2013 season, he has been associated with Team Penske across the Cup Series, earning 27 of his 31 career victories. This includes some memorable wins like the 2015 Daytona 500, the 2016 NASCAR All-Star Race, and the 2021 Bristol Motor Speedway.

The #22 Ford driver revealed in a recent interview with The Athletic that last year’s NASCAR Cup Series championship race at Phoenix Raceway was his best ever NASCAR race till date.

“I look at a few of them that went pretty well. Phoenix last year was a flawless weekend all the way through, racing for the championship with the pressure on us and all that. I’m pretty proud of our whole team on that one, because it’s not just the driver anymore. I can come up with races where I feel like I did a good job, but we didn’t get the finish we needed to. And as a leader of the team, it’s kind of hard to say you did your job good enough then, either.”

He continued:

“Like, maybe I drove the car fine, but that’s just one piece of my job. Now, at least the way I look at it, if we’re not successful as a team, I don’t think I did my job good enough anymore.”
