No one expects Kurt Busch to win a championship in his first year with 23XI Racing and that is exactly why The Las Vegas native is the perfect candidate to do so. NASCAR media can talk about all the growing pains they want. They can remind fans that Busch hasn’t won a championship in 18 years, but they can’t deny the legitimacy he is showing this season.

While Busch did have a tough go at it during the first few races of the 2022 season, especially with a 19th place finish at Daytona, he has recovered nicely in recent weeks. In fact, Busch took home an 8th place finish at Fontana, a Fifth place finish at Phoenix, and a third-place showing at Atlanta. Those are tracks that The NASCAR Cup Series is going to revisit come playoff time, meaning that Busch has the perfect starting point to build a championship-winning ride for Phoenix.
