Chase Elliott maintained his first-place standing in the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series after a win at Nashville Superspeedway on Sunday.
“I figured it was coming. I was hoping not," Elliott said about the caution. He led two times for 42 laps. But he pulled away on the restart and beat Kurt Busch — in a Toyota for 23XI Racing — by 0.551 seconds.
"These things are hard to come by and you have to enjoy them. You never know when or if ever you will get another one. So, super thankful and looking forward to next week.”Busch, who led three laps for Toyota, said he should have been harder on Elliott on the final restart. Ryan Blaney was third in a Ford and followed by Elliott's teammate Kyle Larson, the defending race winner. The JGR trio of Denny Hamlin, Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr. fell to sixth, 21st and 22nd after the late decision to stop for tires ahead of the final restart.The race went bad for Hendrick Motorsports in a two-lap sequence shortly after it resumed following the early lightning delay.
