Kyle Busch’s frustration at Bristol Motor Speedway manifested itself in multiple ways Sunday, with a trade-off of in-race bumping incidents with Riley Herbst but also with some over-the-air tension on the No. 8 Richard Childress Racing team’s radio.

Busch, an eight-time NASCAR Cup Series winner at the 0.533-mile Tennessee oval, finished two laps down in 25th place in Sunday’s Food City 500. He triggered the last of nine yellow flags on the 498th of 505 laps after making sustained contact with Herbst, Busch’s foil in an earlier incident that sent his No. 8 RCR Chevrolet spinning.

During the caution period for the first Busch-Herbst incident, the No. 8 team communications became animated as Busch toiled in 26th place. Radio frustrations had mounted through the race’s first half, with Busch, first-year crew chief Jim Pohlman and spotter Derek Kneeland all striving to solve the No. 8 Chevrolet’s handling problems — with Busch specifically asking for help with rear grip.

Earlier in the race, Pohlman had called for adjustments to tighten the car up, but Busch struggled to make forward progress. On Lap 277, Pohlman asked for feedback from Kneeland: “What is the freakin’ problem now? Is the thing sideways or is it plowing? What the (expletive) does it look like?”

After getting a response of “still not getting into the corner,” Pohlman pressed: “Why? I don’t get it. We tightened it up and why can’t it get in the [expletive] corner?” Kneeland replied: “I don’t know. I’ve got a headset on, not a helmet. I don’t know.”

Busch spun after a Herbst run-in on Lap 313, but continued after slight contact with the trailing car of Erik Jones. During that yellow, Kneeland radioed in: “Listen, I know you’re frustrated. I don’t like running 30th either, but us yelling at each other during the race isn’t going to help [expletive]. Like we’ve gotta keep the glue molded together here. We’re all still in it together and it’s not over. We’re only barely halfway through this thing. … You copy?”

“Yeah, copy,” Pohlman replied. “Just same [expletive] every week.”

Busch’s radio was relatively quiet after the second incident with Herbst’s No. 35 23XI Racing Toyota. There was resignation over the No. 35 team radio after that contact: “Well, third time’s the charm.”

Busch ranks 24th in Cup Series standings, mired in one of the slowest starts of his career. Since winning the pole position for the season-opening Daytona 500, Busch has managed a best 2026 finish of 12th place at the Circuit of The Americas road course. Sunday’s result at Bristol was his fourth consecutive finish outside the top 20.

“Not the finish any of us wanted for the No. 8 Bank OZK Chevrolet here this afternoon at Bristol Motor Speedway,” Busch said post-race. “We battled the rear of the car the entire race, and despite the best efforts of the team, we got a lap down in the third stage and were never able to get back that track position. We’re going to keep putting in the work, and hopefully that begins to translate next weekend in Kansas.”

THOMPSON, Conn. – The hottest driver on the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour to open 2026 is unquestionably Stephen Kopcik.

After earning his first series victory at Martinsville Speedway in his 23rd career start, Kopcik collected another checkered flag on Sunday at Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park. Kopcik earned that victory thanks to a late-race pit stop that catapulted him to the race lead.

RELATED: Complete results from the Icebreaker 150

Track position proved pivotal during the Icebreaker 150 and Kopcik knew his best chance at usurping McKennedy would likely come on pit road. Kopcik credited his Wanick Motorsports crew not only for their efficiency at Thompson, but for the hard work they’ve shown through the first three events.

“That pit stop was crucial,” Kopcik said. “They killed it once again. By coming out first, that gives you lane choice and that means a lot here with 40 to go. It’s unbelievable because yesterday I was wondering if I knew how to drive this place. To come here and win on the Whelen Modified Tour is unbelievable.”

Kopcik now joins a small, but elite group of drivers who have won a Thomposn NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour event. That includes the all-time series wins leader Mike Stefanik, along with Justin Bonsignore, Ted Christopher, Jeff Fuller, Richie Evans and many others.

The speed Kopcik possessed at Martinsville carried over into a cold day around Thompson’s fast, banked layout. He qualified three one-thousandths of a second behind front row starters Jon McKennedy and Matt Hirschman, neither of whom have won a NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour event at Thompson.

It didn’t take long for Kopcik to find his way around Hirschman, but passing McKennedy proved to be a more arduous task. With McKennedy receiving the benefit of clean air, Kopcik was forced to follow him for most of the Icebreaker 150’s middle portion, all while he patiently waited for an opportunity to materialize.

Ronnie Williams’ crash inside of 45 laps remaining was the break Kopcik and Wanick Motorsports needed. Kopcik’s crew did their job with an efficient stop that got their driver the lead, meaning Kopick just had to figure out how to maintain the top spot with McKennedy applying pressure behind him.

Every attempt McKennedy made at Kopcik proved fruitless, which eventually led him to lose the second position to two-time series champion Ron Silk. Although he gradually erased Kopcik’s advantage, Silk didn’t have enough laps at his disposal to earn his first victory of the 2026 season.

Had Silk chased down and overtaken Kopick, he would have become the fifth driver to amass double digit NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour wins at Thompson alongside Stefanik, Bonsignore, Christopher and Fuller. Instead, Silk was left disappointed with a runner-up finish.

“[It all comes down] to track position,” Silk said. “We’re all running the same speed. In that last run, there was a part at the beginning of it where Jon [McKennedy] was the best, there was a part where Stephen [Kopcik] was the best and a part where my car drove great too. It’s very tough to pass, but it was a good race with everybody and congrats to Stephen and his team.”

Kopcik is one of many drivers Silk will need to deal with to obtain a third title, especially since the former has now won two of the first three races to open the season. The wins have helped Kopcik overcome a minor points deficit that stemmed from a 13th in the season-opener at New Smyrna Speedway to now lead the standings for the first time in his career.

“We’re going to keep working hard and try to show up with fast cars we can build on,” Kopcik said. “Momentum is huge, but nothing is going to beat hard work. You’ve got to keep working hard and keep making sure our cars are ready and prepared to the best that we can prepare them. We’ll see what happens.”

Mike Christopher Jr.’s solid day at Thompson ended with a third-place finish. McKennedy settled for fourth after a strong start to his day, with Hirschman completing the top five.

Reigning series champion Austin Beers, Justin Bonsignore, Craig Lutz, Chase Dowling and Tyler Rypkema were sixth through 10th, respectively.

Up next for the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour will be the series’ long awaited return to Oxford Plains Speedway on May 2. The green flag will wave at 6:15 p.m. ET that evening, with FloRacing providing live coverage of all the on-track action.

BRISTOL, Tenn. — A tale of two races unfolded for Ryan Blaney on Sunday at Bristol Motor Speedway.

The No. 12 Team Penske Ford was the quickest on track in the 505-lap barnburner around the Tennessee short track, but Blaney continued an intramural battle within the confines of his pit box and after a call to pit in the closing laps, Blaney crossed the finish line sliding into the runner-up slot next to first-time winner Ty Gibbs.

RELATED: Race results | At-track photos

“I thought I got a really good restart,” Blaney said about overtime. “It’s really hard to hit [the bottom] right. I got a decent first lap. I didn’t get a great [Turns] 1 and 2 the last lap, and it didn’t let me be even with Ty, and I got a really good [Turns] 3 and 4 the last lap. It just wasn’t quite enough, and I’m not gonna throttle up and just destroy somebody.”

Blaney and Kyle Larson were the class of the field Sunday afternoon. The pair led a whopping 474 combined laps and swapped the lead between each other nine times.

The concrete track evolved with big swings throughout the day as Goodyear brought a new tire for the Cup cars to complement the 750-horsepower package.

Blaney said he liked the challenge that the tire and the track provided in the race, especially with Bristol turning to multi-groove action earlier than expected.

“I thought it laid a lot of rubber down, which was good,” Blaney said. “It was better than what we thought after practice, for sure. I thought it was gonna clump the bottom like crazy. The top came in. Like I thought it was a pretty good tire. It’s weird. I didn’t think it fell off a ton, but it like clunked, put a lot of rubber down. I don’t know what to think about that, but it was fun working through the rubber progression through the day.”

What wasn’t fun for Blaney was working through more pit-road woes as the No. 12 pit crew continues to statistically be one of the slowest in the Cup Series.

According to NASCAR Insights, the No. 12 crew was 32nd-fastest of the 37 teams on track Sunday, and in total, lost 11 spots on pit road Sunday along with the decision to pit in the final 20 laps.

“We gotta get it better,” Blaney said bluntly. “If we’re going to keep competing and get cars that can win the races, we’ve got to clean that up.”

No. 12 crew chief Jonathan Hassler remained bullish on his crew fighting through early mistakes in the race.

“I think they did a great job,” Hassler told NASCAR.com. “We had a couple mistakes again, but they stuck with it. All of those guys are capable and we’ve stuck with them, and when everything was on the line the most, they followed through.

“The guys have a lot of potential. They have the ability. We’ve had some bumps in the road, some of which isn’t necessarily those guys or any one person; just kind of getting the whole group and the car and the team kind of in sync.”

While another strong Bristol run for Blaney still didn’t bear his first victory at “The Last Great Colosseum,” Gibbs’ win did conjure up memories of when Blaney scored his first Cup Series triumph.

In 2017, Blaney fended off Cup Series champs Kevin Harvick and Kyle Busch at Pocono Raceway in the Wood Brothers No. 21 Ford for his big breakthrough, and Gibbs mirrored that Sunday, holding off titleholders Larson and Blaney at Bristol to get that elusive win in his 131st start.

Blaney had high praise for Gibbs after falling by just 0.055 seconds to the 23-year-old.

“You never forget your first one, that’s for sure,” Blaney said. “Even though I’m bummed we didn’t win the race, I’m happy that Ty was able to get his first win because I remember what that was like, and I remember the elation and the joy, especially when you’ve come close a handful of times, which he has.

“Ty’s dealt with a lot of criticism, I feel like, from the outside. I feel like he’s handled it pretty well and it’s good to see that he’s been able to prove himself on the race track.”

BRISTOL, Tenn. — When Chase Elliott spun to cause the eighth caution in Sunday’s Food City 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway, driver Ty Gibbs had an emphatic message for crew chief Tyler Allen.

“I don’t want to give up track position — at all,” Gibbs asserted over the team radio.

Allen acquiesced, and Gibbs restarted in the lead on Lap 486. He held that track position through a ninth caution that sent the race to overtime and beat Ryan Blaney to the finish line by 0.055 seconds to claim his first career NASCAR Cup Series victory.

The margin of victory was the closest at Bristol since Rusty Wallace beat Ernie Irvan by one foot in April of 1991.

RELATED: Race results | At-track photos: Bristol

One of four leaders in the eighth race of the season, Gibbs was out front for only the final 25 laps, as reigning series champion Kyle Larson and Ryan Blaney combined to dominate the proceedings before the decisive caution.

But it was Gibbs’ No. 54 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota that found its way to Victory Lane at the 0.533-mile short track — the first Cup victory for a car numbered 54 since Lennie Pond won the only race of his career in 1979 at Talladega.

After he climbed from the car, Gibbs’ immediate thoughts turned to his father, Coy Gibbs, who passed away the night after Ty won the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series (then Xfinity Series) championship in 2022.

“Yeah, it’s awesome,” Gibbs said. “It’s awesome to be with great people. To be in this position is great. I’d love for my father to have seen this. I knew he knew it was going to happen and expected it as well.

“Yeah, it was great day for us. My boys didn’t give up. Pit crew is just amazing. This is our family. It’s been great. So it’s just such great deal. Very honored to be in this situation.”

SHOP: Winner gear

Under the caution that proved decisive, Gibbs, Carson Hocevar, Chase Briscoe, Denny Hamlin and Tyler Reddick stayed out on old tires — an option Allen said he had discussed with Gibbs as they considered possible scenarios during the final stage.

Larson restarted sixth after a two-tire call and Blaney took the green flag in seventh on four new tires.

With the benefit of fresh rubber, Blaney and Larson charged into second and third, with Gibbs holding the lead from the top lane. Gibbs was still in front on Lap 497 of a scheduled 500 when Kyle Busch spun Riley Herbst in payback for an earlier incident to cause the final caution.

Gibbs held his own on the two-lap overtime shootout and narrowly beat Blaney to the finish line, with Larson just 0.229 seconds behind in third.

“Gave it my best shot the last restart,” said Blaney, who started from the pole position, led 190 laps and posted his best career finish in Thunder Valley. “Got a good restart. Was close, but just couldn’t get it done. Proud of the effort by all the (No.) 12 (Team Penske) folks. Gave me a real fast car, fast car in qualifying. Got it better through the race, honestly. Halfway through the race, I thought we got to be the best car, which is really good.

“Gosh, I really wanted to win at Bristol here. I came close. But congrats to Ty. He’s been really close. Nothing is more special than your first Cup win. It’s pretty cool to win at this place.”

Larson led 284 laps and swept the first two stages at Bristol for the third time in his career, but saw his winless streak grow to 32 races, dating to May 11, 2025, at Kansas Speedway.

“Blaney had by far the best car,” Larson acknowledged. “His pit crew just kept putting him behind all day, which really allowed us to lead a lot of laps, get those stage wins. Yeah, so that was good. Happy about all of that. Just knew it was going to be difficult to hold him off. Seemed like every restart, he could just plow right through the field and get to second. Was just really fast.

“Then Ty got strong there the last run, too. That was probably my worst run, I think. We were making some adjustments at that point. I just got a little bit out of the track. Yeah, they were just better than me.”

Reddick finished fourth but saw his series lead over Blaney shrink to 62 points. Chase Briscoe was fifth, followed by Todd Gilliland, who parlayed a two-tire call into his sixth-place finish.

Joey Logano ran seventh, followed by Ryan Preece, Hamlin and Hocevar.

Alex Bowman’s return from a four-race absence because of a vertigo diagnosis came to an early end when Shane van Gisbergen spun in Turn 4 and collected the cars of John Hunter Nemechek and Bowman.

Attempts to repair the car proved futile, and Bowman exited the race in 37th place after completing 163 laps. Even before the accident, though, Bowman had been fighting an ill-handling No. 48 Chevrolet.

“I thought we were OK in practice, but to start the race, we were in trouble,” Bowman said. “It’s a bummer that we didn’t get a chance to work on it. I know (crew chief) Blake (Harris) and this No. 48 Ally Chevrolet team would have liked some pit stops to try and make the car better and get going back in the right direction.

“We were just struggling and then got caught up in somebody else’s mess. I hate it for this team, but we’ll move onto the next one.”

Christopher Bell, who ranked among the pre-race favorites after his Bristol win last fall, finished 27th after a pair of issues in the race’s first half. Bell was penalized for speeding on pit road during the Stage 1 break, knocking him back to 27th place in the order. On the 144th lap, his No. 20 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota scraped the outside retaining wall and later spun to the apron, prompting the race’s third caution period. Further contact on Lap 270 also slowed his progress.

The NASCAR Cup Series’ next race is scheduled for Sunday, April 19, at Kansas (2 p.m. ET, FOX, HBO Max, MRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).

Note: Post-race inspection was completed in the Cup Series garage without issue, confirming Gibbs as the winner. Competition officials indicated that two cars will return to the NASCAR Research & Development Center for further inspection — the No. 5 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet driven by Larson, and the No. 45 23XI Racing Toyota driven by Reddick.

Alex Bowman’s return to NASCAR competition ran into early trouble in Sunday’s Cup Series race, with a four-car crash relegating him to a last-place finish at Bristol Motor Speedway.

Bowman was running 31st in the 37-car field when Shane van Gisbergen’s No. 97 Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet spun on the 160th of 505 laps in the Food City 500. Van Gisbergen’s car collected Bowman’s No. 48 Hendrick Motorsports Chevy, as well as the cars of John Hunter Nemechek and Todd Gilliland, as the quartet squeezed along the outside retaining wall.

Bowman’s car spent several laps behind pit wall for repairs before his No. 48 team determined that the damage was terminal.

Bowman entered and left Sunday’s event 36th in the Cup Series standings after missing the last four races with vertigo. He started 27th and said the pre-race preparations felt routine, even though he hadn’t competed since March 1.

“I don’t think my emotions were much different to start the race,” Bowman said after an evaluation at the infield care center. “Honestly, I think you know coming here, thankful to be back in a car, but at the same time, like just looking at the challenge that we have and just how far behind we are and off we are, and how much better we need to get. So really, we need one good week to start the ball rolling in the right direction, and honestly, I thought this could be a really good one for us, even after qualifying. I think this is a good place for us historically, and just didn’t happen today.”

Bowman was 30th at the end of Stage 1 on Lap 125. He completed just 38 more laps and exited as the race’s first retiree.

Bowman said he felt “totally fine” physically after his first race back, though he was surprised by the performance at one of his better tracks. Bowman had finished among the top 10 in three of his last four Bristol races, and that span included a pair of pole positions.

He’ll aim to rebound in next Sunday’s race at Kansas Speedway (2 p.m. ET, FOX, HBO Max, MRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio), where he has 11 top-10 finishes in 20 starts.

“Just all you can do is keep digging,” Bowman said. “I’ve had plenty of ups and downs throughout the course of my career, and yeah, I mean, we can just as easily go win next week, not saying that we’re going to. We have a lot of work to do before we can contend for wins, but it is a great race track for us, and the way this stuff ebbs and flows, you never know what can happen. So we’re gonna go try to win next week, the best we can.”
