There were a lot of unknowns coming into the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season regarding how Chase Briscoe would perform in his first year driving the No. 19 Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing. Briscoe had spent his previous four seasons at the Cup level driving for the now-defunct Stewart-Haas Racing, where he was a two-time winner. The wins and the speed have been impressive, but Briscoe's consistency has elevated him to another level. His first Cup win also came at Phoenix in 2022, proving he knows his way around the one-mile oval.
