2019 Bluegreen Vacations 500

The 2019 Bluegreen Vacations 500 was a Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race that was held on November 10, 2019, at ISM Raceway in Avondale, Arizona. Contested over 312 laps on the one mile (1.6 km) oval, it was the 35th race of the 2019 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series season, ninth race of the Playoffs, and final race of the Round of 8.

ISM Raceway – also known as PIR – is a one-mile, low-banked tri-oval race track located in Avondale, Arizona. It is named after the nearby metropolitan area of Phoenix. The motorsport track opened in 1964 and currently hosts two NASCAR race weekends annually. PIR has also hosted the IndyCar Series, CART, USAC and the Rolex Sports Car Series. The raceway is currently owned and operated by International Speedway Corporation.

The raceway was originally constructed with a 2.5 mi (4.0 km) road course that ran both inside and outside of the main tri-oval. In 1991 the track was reconfigured with the current 1.51 mi (2.43 km) interior layout. PIR has an estimated grandstand seating capacity of around 67,000. Lights were installed around the track in 2004 following the addition of a second annual NASCAR race weekend.

ISM Raceway is home to two annual NASCAR race weekends, one of 13 facilities on the NASCAR schedule to host more than one race weekend a year. The track is both the first and last stop in the western United States, as well as the fourth and penultimate track on the schedule.

Kyle Busch was the fastest in the first practice session with a time of 26.170 seconds and a speed of 137.562 mph (221.385 km/h).

Chase Elliott was the fastest in the final practice session with a time of 25.969 seconds and a speed of 138.627 mph (223.099 km/h).

Kyle Busch scored the pole for the race with a time of 25.693 and a speed of 140.116 mph (225.495 km/h).
