Austin Cindric took advantage of Ryan Blaney’s lack of fuel to score a win at World Wide Technology Raceway.
Blaney was able to hold off Christopher Bell in the closing laps before the driver of the No. 20 suffered an engine problem which forced him to drive around at reduced power. Blaney would run out of gas coming to the white flag with Cindric in position to score his second career win in the NASCAR Cup Series.
