Joey Logano had to change pit crew mid-race after Jackman Graham Stoddard fell ill

Joey Logano’s Jackman is not feeling well and will not be able to compete in the NASCAR championship race in Phoenix. Team Penske moved the Jackman from No. 2 to No. 22 and the Jackman of the Wood Brothers car No. 21 to No. 2.

Mid-shift in the pit lane. Team Penske has two cars in the fight for the championship. While Joey Logano is fine at the start of the race, his pit crew looks different now.

Graham Stoddard is out. Now we’ll see how this setback changes this race on pit road.

Stoddard is a former Nebraska Cornhusker football player. He played special teams and fullback. After his football career, he moved to NASCAR, where he worked for 11 years. Although he is a tough competitor, he must be pretty sorry if he can’t continue.

Given the difficulty of overtaking on this track in Phoenix, this could be very important. Joey Logano will have to make great pit stops to keep up with his own teammate Ryan Blaney. Not to mention, William Byron has one of the best pit crews in all of NASCAR.

This race started very well for Logano. It shows how strong he can be in clean air.

Joey Logano dominates Stage 1

It’s all Joey Logano on the first stage in Phoenix. The NASCAR Championship 4 driver dominated the first stint of this race. Logano hopes to push the race forward today and dominate the next two stages as well.

Joey Logano started from P2 in today’s race. He would overtake Martin Truex Jr. early on and pull away from the 19th car for most of the stage.

Team Penske has won the last two championships and for good reason. They know what they’re doing at Phoenix. The last time Logano was in this position, he won en route to the finale in Las Vegas and won the championship.

This time he will have more competition. His own teammate Ryan Blaney, the defending champion, will make life difficult for him today. And you can’t discount William Byron, a previous winner at Phoenix and the only Hendrick Motorsports driver in title contention.
