Description

It is currently the ninth race of ten in the Cup Series playoffs, and the final race of the Round of 8. Since 2015, NBC has held the broadcast rights for the final 20 races of the season, including this race. Christopher Bell is the defending winner of the event.

Result Description

During a 168-lap green-flag run to the finish, Blaney tracked down Aric Almirola and passed him for the lead on Lap 478 of 500. Twenty-two laps later, Blaney took the checkered flag 0.899 seconds ahead of Almirola to earn advancement to the Championship 4 race.
Blaney joins fellow Round of 8 winners Kyle Larson and Christopher Bell in the race for the title, along with William Byron, who fought an ill-handling car all day but edged Hamlin for the final playoff spot by eight points after finishing 13th.
