Joe Gibbs Racing driver Christopher Bell says he is not thinking about the prospect of adding a third consecutive victory to his tally in the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series. Bell arrives at Sunday’s Phoenix race on the back of successive wins at Atlanta Motor Speedway and Circuit of the Americas.

Bell edged Byron by 0.433 seconds, earning his first career back-to-back NASCAR Cup Series victories. Tyler Reddick, the pole winner, finished third, followed by Chase Elliott, who recovered from an early spin and car damage. Busch, who led the most laps, fell to fifth after late-race contact with Bell.

Bell starts 32nd and leads just one lap, but it was the one to lead in the second points race of the young season.
