Ty Gibbs was leading the strategy for those who cut out a pit stop, finishing third. Chase Briscoe and Tyler Reddick filled out the rest of the top five.
Along with the win, SVG also led the way at the end of Stage 2, while teammate Ross Chastain won Stage 1. Connor Zilisch earned the fastest lap bonus with a 1:12.541s.
