Stats are Just Numbers - Homestead Edition

When it comes to finales Homestead Miami is where NASCAR holds theirs. NASCAR has held the season ending race at the track they visit only once a year ever since 2002. Homestead has had many eventful races but has a bigger reason to be important. Starting in 2014 The New Chase Format would have the final round with four drivers competing for the championship. The best finishing driver at Homestead would crown a champion and if 2014 has any implication on 2015's final race you won't be able to sit down on the final 10 laps. Along with NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Chase we will also crown the Xfinity Series and Camping World Truck Series champions. Here are the stats at homestead even though stats are just a number.
