It was a battle between Chevrolets and Fords to finish out Stage 2 of the postponed Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway on Sunday.
Austin Dillon and his No. 3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet, however, was able to hold onto his lead with help from a line of fellow Chevrolets behind him and pull away to win his second stage victory in 2019.
Alex Bowman in the No. 88 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet finished second, while his HMS teammates William Byron in the No. 24 and Chase Elliott in the No. 9 ended up right behind him.
Clint Bowyer in the No. 14 Stewart-Haas Racing Ford was leading a pack of Fords on the outside line and came close to pulling away with the lead, but they weren’t able to pull it off. Bowyer finished in fifth.
