William Byron wins at Texas, AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 400 Results

William Byron won the AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 400 at Texas Motor Speedway on Sunday.

Bubba Wallace began the race on the pole and would lead though the first round of pitstops. Austin Dillon would crash on lap 42 to bring out the first caution of the race due to a right rear wheel which came off while on track. It would not be long before the second caution came out for the spinning cars of Aric Almirola and Alex Bowman.

Despite concerns of a flat right front Kyle Busch opted to stay on track. That decision would prove costly as he would spin laps later hitting the wall with the rear-end of his car. Tyler Reddick would win the first stage of the race while Kyle Larson emerged as a threat to win in the second stage claiming the stage.

Ross Chastain would deal with throttle problems in the third stage dropping him to the back of the field. Inside of 20 laps to go Larson would go around while trying to hold off Wallace.

In the end it was Byron who would get past Wallace on the final restart to claim his sixth race win of the season and the 10th of his career. The win is the 300th for Hendrick Motorsports.

Byron is now onto the Round of 8. The next Cup Series race will be at Talladega Superspeedway.
