Gragson would persevere Brandon Jones to win his third race in a row; he’s the primary driver to realize the feat since Austin Cindric swept the Kentucky doubleheader and gained Texas in 2020, however the first to take action in three separate weeks and places since Christopher Bell in Kentucky, Loudon and Iowa in 2018.

“The final warning got here out and I knew if I might name the highest it was going to be tough for them to get there,” Gragson commented. “I admire Brandon Jones driving us clear. He gave us the bumper with two laps to go and I used to be hanging on and scrubbing the fence.”

I felt like we have been a bit of off final race right here final September. We got here again and I really feel like we have been one of many quickest, so very grateful for that.”
