Christopher Bell led 176 of 312 laps, and finished second while Kyle Larson placed third.
Tyler Reddick’s quest for the four-peat ended with a solid eighth-place finish, further cementing his place atop the championship standings.
There were also 12 cautions, which tied the record for Cup races at Phoenix. Ross Chastain in 28th was the last car running, but he was over 25 laps down with significant damage.
Blaney also won Stage 1, while Bell won Stage 2 in the race. NASCAR will return to Phoenix Raceway in the fall as one of the Chase for the Championship races.
