Overview

• Elliott capitalized when Denny Hamlin and Bubba Wallace made contact in the final corner, darting to the inside to complete the winning pass.
• The Hendrick Motorsports driver sealed his second victory of 2025 and the 21st of his career by 0.069 seconds after a two-overtime finish.
• A four-tire call on the last pit stop left Elliott on fresher rubber than many leaders who took two, fueling his surge from eighth on the restart.
• Hamlin led 159 laps and swept both stages, but a power-steering problem and a slow two-tire stop dropped him from control of the race.
• A red flag followed Zane Smith’s flip in overtime before the decisive restart; Elliott joins Ryan Blaney in the Round of 8, with Ross Chastain, Wallace, Tyler Reddick and Austin Cindric below the cutline heading to the Charlotte Roval elimination race.
