Christopher Bell brought home the win in the race, with Austin Cindric finishing second, and Tyler Reddick crossing the finish line third.

Grala battled 37 others cars in the field and the race endured four cautions and eight caution laps. There were eight lead changes before the checkered flag.

With Bell driving his Supra to victory for Joe Gibbs, Toyota added 40 points to its season totals. Overall, Toyota ranks No. 1 with 825 points, followed by Chevrolet in the No. 2 spot with 823. Ford sits at No. 3 with 816 points on the season.
