Chandler Smith used pit strategy to replicate his victory of a year ago at Richmond (Va.) Raceway and charge to the NASCAR Xfinity Series points lead.

Smith, who earned his first series victory at Richmond almost one year ago, didn’t appear to have as good a car as his Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Aric Almirola through the first two stages. Early in the final stage, however, Smith and Almirola both elected to pit for new tires under a caution on lap 174 of 250 for a wreck involving Joey Gase and Dawson Cram. Smith beat Almirola off pit road and never looked back as the race stayed green the rest of the way.
