A last-lap wreck in the second overtime of a wild race at Texas Motor Speedway brought a dramatic end to Chase Elliott’s 42-race NASCAR Cup winless streak.

Elliott grabbed the lead for the time on a restart with eight of the scheduled 267 laps remaining, but it was still a long road to Victory Lane. Elliott had to fend off Denny Hamlin on a restart with two laps to go, then fought off Ross Chastain on a pair of restarts in overtime before finally securing the win when the caution came out when William Byron got into Chastain racing for second place.

Stage 1 Kyle Larson held off Christopher Bell by 0.931 seconds to claim the Stage 1 win. Hamlin was third, Reddick fourth and Chase Briscoe ended up fifth. Stage 2 Chastain stayed out on the last caution and was able to hold off Bubba Wallace by 0.613 seconds to take the Stage 2 win. Ryan Blaney was third, Erik Jones fourth and Briscoe grabbed fifth on the final lap. Bell spun off Turn 4 on lap 101 in an incident that also saw John Hunter Nemechek and Alex Bowman wreck in the aftermath.
