Ford Championship Weekend has arrived, and by the time it ends, there will be champions crowned in all three of NASCAR's national touring series.

The big prize, of course, is the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series title. Kyle Busch, Jeff Gordon, Kevin Harvick and Martin Truex Jr. will square off for the title in Sunday's Ford EcoBoost 400. The driver with the best finish of the four will be the 2015 Sprint Cup champion.
