As the old adage goes, everything gets bigger when it rolls into Texas. The Cup Series is no exception: when drivers traipse atop Texas Motor Speedway’s asphalt expanse, they do so knowing the thrills, spills of NASCAR’s top-flight will grow all the more magnified.

Carson Hocevar started race day on top, hoping to carry momentum after following his first-career Cup Series win with a pole-sitting showcase during qualifying.

He wasn’t the only one who made their impact felt in the Lone Star State, however. Sunday’s race was filled with starlight, even if a few wrecks dimmed the brilliance at times.

With that, here’s a look at the results for the 2026 Wurth 400.

Chase Elliott took home the crown at Texas Motor Speedway on Sunday, outpacing Denny Hamlin to claim his second win of the Cup Series campaign.

Elliott was the standout driver in the field on Sunday, surging to the front of the field and staying their for much of the day. He ended the race with more laps led than any other driver.

Elliott had to fend off a series of gifted foes to keep himself out in front. Hamlin, Chris Buescher and Tyler Reddick all looked likely to mount a charge on the Hendrick Motorsports standout. They were swept aside as the acton wore on, however, unable to test Elliott, a former Cup Series champion.
