I just wanted to have a solid day and see what came out of it,” SiriusXM NASCAR Radio quoted Dillon in the caption.Dillon recalled how his car showed strength in the second run of the race, which boosted the confidence of his crew chief.

Explaining what happened, he said,“The second run of the race we had a really good run as well, and that kind of got my crew chief. He thought we had that capability in the second run of the race, and we almost ran down the guys to score a stage point and then we hit pit road and then we kinda had our one bad pit stop of the race right there, lost some track position and then the next stage we were just kinda okay, and then caution fewll, we were going back forward, at that point and then we had a couple of quick cautions, at the end of stage 2, and at the end of every caution I was gaining a spot on the restarts.”Austin Dillon’s sixth career NASCAR Cup Series win came by leading 107 laps, including the final 49.
