In the closing laps of the race, Tony Stewart encountered a formidable adversary in Hailie Deegan, a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series regular. Deegan's remarkable performance in her backup car propelled her to a sensational second-place finish.

Meanwhile, Ryan Newman continued to assert his authority in the series point standings, securing a third-place finish that virtually guarantees his grasp on the 2023 SRX title.
