What many thought was impossible is now reality as Ty Dillon has advanced all the way into the finals for the $1 million in-season bracket challenge. In the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, he will face another 'Ty' for the big prize as Ty Gibbs also advanced.
Dillon, who entered the five-week challenge as the bottom seed in the No. 10 Kaulig Racing Chevrolet, has since defeated Denny Hamlin, Brad Keselowski, Alex Bowman, and now John Hunter Nemechek. He ran around Nemechek all day at Dover, passing him on a late-race restart just before a caution that granted him the free pass. At that point, he was out of reach of Nemechek, clearing the path for him to make it all the way to the finals.
