As the field battled for stage points, the Chevrolets of Kyle Busch and Ross Chastain moved to the outside of Ryan Blaney just seconds from the finish line. Bowman filled the hole in the middle as Blaney fell back, but when the bumpers connected in the always treacherous tri-oval, Blaney's car got sideways. The No. 12 Team Penske Ford bounced off the door of Shane van Gisbergen before shooting back across the track, slamming into Chastain's No. 1 Trackhouse Racing Team Chevrolet. Both cars crashed across the line in eighth and tenth. Their race was over, and both drivers ended the day equally disappointed.
.@Blaney gets turned hard into the wall and collects @RossChastain — big hits at the end of Stage 2. @joeylogano also got a piece of it.
