It looked like Denny Hamlin had chased down Ross Chastain for his fourth Cup win this year with seven laps left. Hamlin led 70 laps and Austin Cindric’s crash set up the chaotic finish with Hamlin running out of gas and finishing 12th.A thunderstorm that forced NASCAR to halt the race for 1 hour, 21 minutes washed off the traction that had built up on the 1.33-mile concrete oval. As a result, several cars got loose and crashed into the wall or slid into the grass.

Larson then ran out of gas on another restart, causing Kyle Busch to crash into him. That forced Hamlin to go to the pits for more gas, scrambling the field for another try at a finish. Drivers tried to run as many laps as possible before an incoming thunderstorm on a steamy, humid Tennessee afternoon.
