The NAASCAR Cup Series capped off a triple header weekend with a very clean and exciting race that had “the Melon Man” Ross Chastain smashing his first watermelon of the season after giving Trackhouse Racing its first ever pole.
With 17 of the 26 regular season races completed, William Byron tops the list in stage points and stage win. While Byron has won his way into the playoffs, last year Ryan Blaney showed that consistency with the stage points can put a driver into the playoffs even without a win.
