Blaney, the reigning Cup Series champion, was dominant from the front, leading more laps on Sunday (200) than he had during the whole of the season prior. He had to ward off quite the challenge from the No. 24, who pushed hard in the final dozen or so laps to make things interesting.

With 80 of his closest friends and family members in attendance, Blaney delivered another strong showing. He made history in the process, becoming the first Cup Series driver to win at the site.

He celebrated in style, too, finishing the day with a tire burnout — a gesture he rarely does, even after the most momentous of victories.
