At Circuit of the Americas in NASCAR O'Reilly Series Auto Parts, all eyes were on teammates Shane van Gisbergen and Connor Zilisch. They shared the front row, and were the clear favorites for the win.
While SVG drove off with the race win, Zilisch limped home to a 21st place finish. That followed a race where he struggled with brake issues, spent an extended period in the pits, and then got wrecked in the final laps of the race.
