In regulation, it looked at first like the race was going to come down to a battle of pit strategy between Denny Hamlin (who took four tires on his final stop) and last year’s race winner Ross Chastain (who took two).
The two waged a wild battle for win at Nashville Superspeedway over the final 10 of the originally scheduled 300 laps. Hamlin took the lead with seven laps to go, and Chastain was mounting a return challenge when Austin Cindric spun out after contact with Noah Gragson with one lap to go.
