In an exciting race that was decided in overtime at Talladega Superspeedway, Chase Briscoe secured his place in the NASCAR season finale.

Honestly, I wouldn’t have won the race without Ty,” Briscoe stated after the victory. The race was full of incidents, including a crash involving Chris Buescher and William Byron, which led to overtime. Todd Gilliland and Ty Gibbs completed the podium, demonstrating the competitiveness of the race.Elliott Suffers a Setback at Talladega
