After winning the Texas Cup, Chase Elliott expressed gratitude for his team's efforts. 'As much as we've struggled at Texas, to have won two races here now in the last few years, is pretty wild,' said the driver. He highlighted the collective effort from Hendrick Motorsports, noting how the team has been 'digging in really hard' throughout the season despite not meeting their expectations.
Denny Hamlin finished second, reflecting on a close battle where he believed he couldn't risk more aggression. 'I could've risked it off of (turn) 2 and crashed both of us,' Hamlin explained. Alex Bowman took third place, noting improvements from practice to the race, while Tyler Reddick finished fourth, hoping for more speed on the final restart. macnevers-and-co.beer
