Chase Elliott is now tied with Hall of Fame inductees Bobby Labonte and Benny Parsons, at 21 career wins. Elliott also tied Jeff Burton and Jack Smith.
2025 marks Elliott’s first multi-win season since 2022. The 2020 Cup champion also won at Atlanta in June.
“I was really proud of how we were prepared, how we handled (Saturday), put ourselves in a good position, got our pit crew a great pit stall on pit road, got to showcase their talents, how good they are,” Elliott said of his Kansas win. “We weren’t the dominant car on the long run, but we had good short-run pace and kept ourselves in the fight.”
