It was nearly another victory in the 2025 NASCAR Cup season for drivers with a last name starting with 'B', as Alex Bowman came one position shy of the win at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Alex Bowman took the lead with 33 laps to go, sliding by Bubba Wallace as he got tight at the exit of Turn 2. They drag-raced down the backstretch, but Wallace was unable to hold back the charge.
But the battle for victory was far from over as Kyle Larson made a final charge against his Hendrick Motorsports teammate. As Larson rapidly closed on the pole-sitter, Bowman tried to move higher to match Larson's line but got into the outside wall in a crucial mistake with just six laps left. Larson pounced at the opportunity, taking the lead and setting sail.
