William Byron seemed to have taken a safe bet to pull out a win Sunday night at Iowa Speedway, but fortune favored the bold.

When Chris Buescher hit the wall to bring out a caution in the final stage, the pit window was open to make it to end of the 350-lap race on fuel. Three teams – including eventual race winner Ryan Blaney – elected to take on just two new right-side tires while Byron and most of the rest of the lead-lap cars took four.

Feel like I was making marginal gains through 1 and 2. My tires were getting hot down there and I would start sliding the rears around a little bit on entry. “Proud of this team. We need to put together some consistent runs. This is a good start. Would love to be winning tonight, but Ryan and those guys were really good.” Although the speeds got faster as the race went from daylight to night, the tire issues became less prominent as the race went on.
