Overview
- Joey Logano claimed the final Round of 8 berth by four points, finishing 20th and 0.167 seconds ahead of Ross Chastain.
- Crew chief Paul Wolfe’s late call to pit for fresh tires with about 10 laps remaining kept Logano in the fight.
- On the final lap, Denny Hamlin passed a fading Chastain, who then spun attempting to repass and crossed the finish line in reverse.
- Hamlin advanced by 33 points and enters the next round as the No. 1 seed in the standings.
- Chastain’s elimination followed earlier pit-road mistakes, including a speeding penalty, while Logano was booed during his post-race interview.
