There are once again 37 cars on the entry list for this coming Sunday afternoon's NASCAR Cup Series race at Phoenix Raceway. However, two changes have been made since this past Sunday afternoon's race at Circuit of the Americas (COTA).
At COTA, Trackhouse Racing added the only non-chartered entry, that being the No. 87 Chevrolet for Connor Zilisch. Zilisch, a full-time Xfinity Series driver for JR Motorsports, made his first career Cup Series start for the team with which he signed as a development driver last year.
The No. 87 Chevrolet is not on the entry list for Sunday's 312-lap Shriners Children's 500 around the four-turn, 1.022-mile (1.645-kilometer) Avondale, Arizona oval. However, the No. 78 Chevrolet is.
Live Fast Motorsports, which tried but failed to qualify for the season-opening Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway, made their first start of the year at Atlanta Motor Speedway, with team co-owner B.J. McLeod behind the wheel of the No. 78 Chevrolet.
But in Sunday's race, Katherine Legge is set to make her Cup Series debut in the entry. Legge primarily competes in sports cars but has also competed in IndyCar over the years. Her NASCAR national series experience is limited to five starts, the most recent of which in 2023.
Her most recent national series oval start came in 2018, though she did compete in this year's ARCA Menards Series season opener at Daytona.
The 36 chartered entries are all the same, and with the same drivers.
