October 11, 2026<\/a><\/p>\nThe starting order was set by the metric after qualifying was rained out, which put Kyle Larson on pole position and van Gisbergen in 10th.<\/p>\n
Larson led until Lap 36 when the competition caution came out, prompting the field to pit. In that time, van Gisbergen slipped to 14th.<\/p>\n
Sixth-placed Denny Hamlin (#11 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota Camry) was stung for a safety violation when the team lost control of a tyre, which wandered into Trackhouse Racing\u2019s pit stall.<\/p>\n
Eighth-placed Ryan Blaney in the #12 Team Penske Ford Mustang was pinged for speeding.<\/p>\n
Racing resumed on Lap 41. Ty Gibbs (#54 Joe Gibbs Racing Camry) slid up into the wall on the restart and then spun a lap later to bring out the caution on Lap 42.<\/p>\n
An unfortunate casualty in the incident was Brad Keselowski (#6 RFK Racing Ford Mustang) who spun in avoidance.<\/p>\n
After a short yellow, the race went green on Lap 47. Bubba Wallace (#23 23XI Racing Camry) who restarted third vaulted to the lead, though that only lasted until Lap 59 when Larson retook top spot.<\/p>\n
On Lap 77, Alex Bowman\u2019s #48 Hendrick Motorsports Camaro snapped loose and shot up the track into the path of Wallace. That brought a premature end to Stage 1, which was won by Larson.<\/p>\n
The top 10 was completed by Chase Briscoe, Christopher Bell, Austin Cindric, Tyler Reddick, Daniel Suarez, Corey Heim, Carson Hocevar, Chris Buescher and Ryan Blaney. SVG was 27th.<\/p>\n
Larson retained his lead after the stage break pit stops and took the green flag on Lap 87 but by Lap 108 lost the lead to Bell (#20 Joe Gibbs Racing Camry).<\/p>\n
John Hunter Nemechek (#42 Legacy Motor Club Camry) spun on Lap 117 to bring out the caution, prompting another round of pit stops.<\/p>\n
Having recovered from his earlier pit stop misdemeanour, Hamlin found himself in strife with Larson on Lap 124 when the pair made nose-to-tail contact, which sent the #5 Hendrick Motorsports Camaro up the road and down to seventh.<\/p>\n
Stage 2 ended on Lap 166 led by Bell, followed by Blaney, Hamlin Larson, Tyler Reddick, Cindric, Briscoe, Josh Berry, Chase Elliott and Carson Hocevar. SVG finished the stage 13th.<\/p>\n
Stage 3 started on Lap 173 with Bell in charge. He continued to control proceedings while Briscoe made headway to second.<\/p>\n
On Lap 206, Reddick got loose coming out of Turn 2 and cut across the nose of Gray Gaulding (#66 Garage 66 Mustang), sending the NASCAR wildcard into a spin.<\/p>\n
The race went back to green on Lap 211. Second-placed Briscoe got the jump on Bell and took the lead. Van Gisbergen, meanwhile, restarted ninth.<\/p>\n
Briscoe controlled the contest until the last lap when he came upon traffic and Bell\u2019s late surge, only to come up 0.029s short.<\/p>\n
