Martin Truex Jr. dominated at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, main 254 of 301 laps on his strategy to his third win of the 2023 season. The race was run on Monday after excessive climate pressured NASCAR to postpone the occasion.
The victory allowed Truex to regain management of the common season factors lead. He now leads William Byron by 17pts.
NASCAR now heads to Pocono the place Chase Elliott is the defending winner. Denny Hamlin had initially received the race, however he and then-teammate Kyle Busch have been disqualified after failing post-race inspection. Elliott, who completed third, inherited the race win. NASCAR’s Most Common Driver is at present in dire want of a race win to make the playoffs, with simply six extra races earlier than the common season involves an finish.
This weekend is a triple-header with the Cup, Xfinity and Truck Collection all competing on the Difficult Triangle. Elliott, Daniel Suarez and Ty Dillon are among the many Cup drivers who’ve entered the Xfinity race. Kyle Busch, Ross Chastain, and Christopher Bell have all entered the Truck race.
It was introduced this week that one other Supercars star will give NASCAR a attempt later this yr. Following Shane van Gisbergen’s gorgeous win on debut at Chicago, Brodie Kostecki will now make his debut on the Indianapolis RC with Richard Childress Racing.
